Charles Farrar Browne (1834-1867) was an American humorous writer, best known under the nom de plume Artemus Ward. He began life as a compositor and occasional contributor to the daily and weekly journals. In 1858, he published in the Cleveland Plaindealer the first of the "Artemus Ward" series, which in a collected form achieved great popularity in both America and England. In 1860 he became editor of Vanity Fair magazine, a humorous New York weekly, which proved a failure. About the same time he began to appear as a lecturer, and by his droll and eccentric humour attracted large audiences. In 1866 Ward visited England, where he became exceedingly popular both as a lecturer and as a contributor to Punch magazine. The "Artemus Ward" stories were collected in The Complete Works of Artemus Ward (in seven parts).

There is a story of two "smart" Yankees, one named Hosea and the other Hezekiah, who met in an oyster shop in Boston. Said Hosea, "As to opening oysters, why nothing's easier if you only know how." "And how's how?" asked Hezekiah. "Scotch snuff," replied Hosea, very gravely-"Scotch snuff. Bring a little of it ever so near their noses, and they'll sneeze their lids off." "I know a man who knows a better plan," observed Hezekiah. "He spreads the bivalves in a circle, seats himself in the centre, reads a chapter of Artemus Ward to them, and goes on until they get interested. One by one they gape with astonishment at A. Ward's whoppers, and as they gape my friend whips 'em out, peppers away, and swallows 'em."

The Complete Works of Artemus Ward is a collection of written work by Charles Farrar Browne, who long wrote under the pen name referred to in the book's title. The book opens with the brief biography of Browne written by Melville Landon. The basic details of the author's life are recounted, along with a discussion of the author's unique comedic style. Landon's work serves as an appropriate introduction to the man and his writings. From there, this collection is wholly focused on the work of Browne. The book is divided into seven sections: part one features essays, sketches, and letters; part two is a series of articles about the war; part three is a collection of romances and other short stories; part four an account of the author's travels; part five "The London Punch Letters"; part six features Artemus' Ward's Panorama; and finally part seven is devoted to miscellany. True to the title of the book, this is a detailed and all-encompassing collection of the author's work. While he occasionally tackled more serious subjects, Browne was first and foremost a writer of comedy. This collection is intended to amuse, and Browne does so with a mix of clever wordplay and dry wit - Browne's true talent is in his layered comedy that reveals itself to the conscientious reader. The Complete Works of Artemus Ward is an enjoyable collection of one of America's great forgotten comedic writers. For those unfamiliar with his writings, this book serves as the perfect introduction, and for those who have read Browne's work before, this collection is a reminder of the author's immense comedic talents.
