The old man was dying an dhe called his wife and family to his bedside. There were four sons – three fine big boys and a little one. He said to his wife in a weak voice, ‘Don’t lie to me now – I want to know the truth. The little one – is he really mine?’ ‘Oh, yes, dear,’ said his wife. ‘He really is, I give you my word of honour.’ The old man smiled and slipped peacefully away. With a sigh of relief, the widow muttered, ‘Thank God he didn’t ask me about the other three!’
Containing the creme de la creme of the joke world, The World’s Best After-Dinner Jokes is the perfect accompaniment to any meal.

If these are the best jokes, heaven knows what the worst ones are. They can't be any less funny. Well out of date, misogynist and racist.
