If you ever worked for the Post Office, or almost any Government office, you'll probably recognize some of the characters in this book. Not much to the story; some of it is funny, but much of it is a little depressing. Also, the story takes place before major postal advances, such as machine mail sorting. But if you remember when there were mail collection boxes on almost every corner, and the mailman carried a large leather bag of mail and walked rather than driving his route, you may enjoy this tale.
