Irrational Fear

We all have our personal phobias and white-knuckle moments. The title story of Irrational Fear tells of Davis's mother's fear of snakes and the way she eventually got even with him for making fun of her. (She always came out on top.)


The second story, 'The Red Coat', tells why his father and his father's brother-in-law finally stopped playing Christmas tricks on their sisters and wives.
Here's another hilarious send-up from one of America's favorite storytellers.
