✦ Synopsis

Though formally trained as a political scientist, Canadian writer Stephen Leacock rose to fame and fortune on the strength of his satirical works of humor, which often skewered the pretensions of the well-to-do. In The Hohenzollerns in America , he imagines a deposed family of European aristocrats being forced to perform menial labor after being pushed from power.
