		Harvey Cox writes: "A viable postmodern theology will be created neither by those who have completely withdrawn from the modern world nor by those who have affirmed it unconditionally.
		It will come from those who have lived within it but have never been fully part of it, like the women in Adrienne Rich's poem who, though they dived into the wreck, have not found their names inscribed within it."

		For anyone interested in the life of Will Cuppy, one of the greatest - and tragically neglected - American humorists, I can recommend my own biographical afterword to the 1984 David R. Godine paperback reprint of Cuppy's Decline and Fall of Practically Everybody.
		Aside from this fairly brief treatment, nothing has been written about Cuppy's life, though the library at the University of Chicago (Cuppy's alma mater) did a small exhibit on him a decade or so ago.

		As soon as I discovered Cuppy I knew I had to get as much of his material as I could get my hands on -- and he has never disappointed me. Brainy and funny, this is an author deserving of being much better known.
		Nonetheless, you will find many of the unique observations and ways of describing the world (and its inhabitants) that make his later books true masterpieces.
		This book has a remarkably "modern" feel to it, and will be a revelation to anybody who thinks that books must be topical to pack a punch.

		This book is only partly about "dirty little secrets"; it is mostly a collection of unfamiliar information about the war, presented in some 300 briefs.
