"How did Arkman Noah / Provide for protozoa?"

It's not often that an acclaimed historian takes a turn for light verse. But in these 1,707 couplets, quatrains, and other terse verse, John R. Alden takes on the tradition of Ogden Nash. His subject matter ranges from dinosaurs to computers, from Confucius to Darwin, from Jonah to George Bush. His wit, wisdom, and powers of observation are sure to amuse and delight.

John R. Aldenย (1908โ€“1991) was a Duke University professor, an authority on the American Revolution, and an established historian. In addition to authoring eleven books, he was awarded the Beveridge Prize of American Historical Association in 1945 and a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1955.

Christopher Hurt is an accomplished narrator with a lengthy rรฉsumรฉ of popular titles for Blackstone. A graduate of George Washington Universityโ€™s acting program, he currently resides in New York City.
