Dive into a world of whimsical exaggeration with Of All Things, a collection of dry, deadpan humor that brings the everyday experiences of the common man to life. These stories, infused with wit and charm, are a heartfelt tribute to my late father, Michael Earl Sproule (1947-2023). Summary by Aaron Sproule.

The titles in this delightful collection of essays include: "The Social Life of the Newt", "Coffee, Megg and Ilk, Please", "When Genius Remained Your Humble Servant", "The Tortures of Week-End Visiting", "Gardening Notes", "Lesson Number One", "Thoughts on Fuel Saving", "Not According To Hoyle", "From Nine To Five", "Turning Over A New Ledger Leaf", "A Piece of Roast Beef", "The Community Masque As A Substitute For War" and "Call For Mr. Kenworthy".
