The Merry Tales Of The Three Wise Men Of Gotham

The Merry Tales of the Three Wise Men of Gotham is a collection of humorous stories written by James Kirke Paulding. The book tells the tales of three men from the town of Gotham who are known for their foolishness and lack of common sense. Despite their reputation, the three men are able to outsmart and trick others through their wit and cunning. The stories are set in medieval England and are filled with comical situations, witty dialogue, and clever wordplay. The book is a classic example of American humor and has been enjoyed by readers of all ages for generations.A want of sufficient confidence in their own opinions, appears to me another fault, which, however, almost deserves to be pardoned on account of its novelty. It has happened to me more than once, to hear a judge decide upon a case, on the ground of some recorded decision of another judge, when I myself would a thousand times rather have trusted it to his own unbiassed sense of right and wrong. It seems odd, to see a lawyer teaching a judge his lesson, out of a pile of books, and making him who is there as a master, appear more like a scholar, learning his alphabet from some beardless pedagogue.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
