It's probably not available in ebook format, but I found "The Oxford Book of Humorous Prose: From William Caxton to P.G.Wodehouse. A Conducted Tour by Frank Muir", published in 1990, to be a very good introduction to about 250 different authors of humorous prose. Used copies of the hardback and paperback versions are available on Amazon for low prices.
