All Jolson is Ankh-Morpork's finest chef and its keenest eater - a combination made in mashed potato heaven. He got his nickname from the fact that no-one, seeing him for the first time, could believe it was All Jolson. He's the only man who shows up on an atlas and can affect the movements of small planets. Comedy echo of Roundworld's Al Jolson, the US vaudeville performer who was voted the finest entertainer in the world in 1948, famous for his use of black make-up.

Annotation

In Thud!, Fred Colon mentions a Precious Jolson with 'muscles on her like a troll'. I am presuming, but is this the clearly redoubtable daughter of this Goliath of a man?
