The most popular standup comic in the US. -Time His YouTube videos have been viewed more than 400 million times by fans all over the world. He has played to sold-out venues across North America, Europe, South Africa and Australia. He has sold more than six million DVDs, Forbes has ranked him in their Celebrity 100 list of most powerful entertainers for two years running, and he has been the top touring comedian in the United States for the last two years. Whether he's breathing life into an old curmudgeon, an over- caffeinated purple maniac, or a screaming, skeletal, dead terrorist, Jeff Dunham is the straight man to some of the funniest partners in show business.All by My Selves is the story of one pretty ordinary guy, one interesting hobby, one very understanding set of parents, and a long and winding rode to becoming America's favorite comedian. With wit, honesty, and lots of great show business detail, Jeff shares all the major moments in his journey. From the toy dummy he spotted at a toy store when he was 8 years old to playing to arenas filled with screaming fans, Jeff takes readers behind the curtain to explain how he turned an old fashioned art form into something truly modern and hip. Best of all, Jeff's story is accompanied by asides and interruptions from his characters-who share all the hilarious details Jeff himself is too embarrassed to include.Watch a Video

If you don't know who jeff dunham is...you need to get out more! To me he is one of the best ventriloquists ever. I loved him since I saw some of his youtube videos about 6 years ago. His puppets include: walter, the grumpy old grouch; achmed(my fav),the dead terrorist; peanut, the crazy purple dude...

Wow. I really enjoyed this book! It was funny, touching, amusing, entertaining, and extremely informative. I learned a lot about ventriloquism - or vent, as Dunham and people in the biz call it. I also learned a lot about Dunham's life. He's worked on his talent for a very long time, he's met/worked...

If you are a Jeff Dunham fan I highly recommend this book. Jeff talks about how he started his career and all the years it took to become what he is today.

From the very first time I even heard about this book, I was keen, but I wasn't too sure whether the book would actually be any good, or if it was just a gimmick. Especially when I saw that Jeff Dunham's characters took part in it as well. How would that even work in writing? Wouldn't it end up bein...
