As the Woodbridge campus librarians continue to remove old material from our collection they occasionally stumble across obscure titles. The Vanishing American Outhouse published in 1989 definitely fits the bill. We are unsure what we can possibly convey about this book that the cover does not. The faculty/student double-decker outhouse on page 8 allows the reader to infer a few things about that particular academic institution. The outhouse on page 74 is undoubtedly the reason why building codes are an excellent idea. The Interesting shenanigans recounted on page 51 make us realize that the times may change but pranks are always funny.
