Madison, University of Wisconsin Press. 1997. (ISBN: 0299154548). Soft Cover, 8vo - 8" - 9" Tall. A clean, tight copy, still in original publisher's shrinkwrap. 260 pp. "Proverbs, though anonymous, speak with great authority, and politicians from classical to modern times have deployed them effectively in their rhetoric. In looking at political proverbs in the twentieth century, Wolfgang Mieder -- the leading expert on proverbs today -- offers proof of the power of these bits of borrowed wisdom to serve any master or any purpose, for good or ill.". Fine.
