It was in hard cover sometime during 2008 I believe. Each chapter of the book was devoted to a single comedian. I distinctly remember a chapter for Robert Klein, Billy Crystal and Albert Brooks. I’ve looked on Amazon but for the life of me none of them look like what I remember.

Can anyone help me out?
