Bert Fegg's Nasty Book for Boys and Girls
Bert Fegg's Nasty Book for Boys And Girls is a humorous book first published by Methuen in 1974 which purports to have been written by a psychopathic character, Dr. Fegg. In fact, the book is the work of Terry Jones and Michael Palin, who adapted a range of material from scripts written for the television comedy series, "Monty Python's Flying Circus". Some material was later used in Palin's 1977 TV series, "Ripping Yarns". The first edition was sold bearing a sticker on the front cover which read "A Monty Python Educational Product".
