«The World's Best Scottish Jokes» is a collection of Scottish humor by Des MacHale, published by Angus & Robertson in paperback (96 pages, in English).
The book brings together jokes and quips with Scotland as the common thread: kilts, haggis, whisky and Jock's legendary stinginess appear again and again as starting points. The tone is light and plays with the country's stereotypes for an immediate comic effect.
The original year of publication is 1988; the identifiers for this edition are ISBN-10 0207158053 and ISBN-13 9780207158056.
For a general audience seeking a short, light-hearted read; especially for those interested in British humor and Scottish culture.
