That's a broad open-ended question. Maybe you are a candidate for quick and dirty pocket-hole joinery.

Aye, there is a "tried and tested fast way" - hire a woodworker.
OTOH, what kind of wood and how do you want to join them? End to end, end to face, end to edge, edge to edge, edge to face, face to face, sixty nine?

Or even a couple 16d nails.

2000Straighten the edges with a jointer plane. Takes some technique, but that's the way they did it in the old days.
Start with a table saw to make sure both edges are as straight as possible. Then clamp both boards together and plane both edges at the same time. But they have to be STRAIGHT.
Of course that presents another set of criteria.

Or scaffold.

Ah, well scaffold nails are meant to be pulled, so I'd like smooth shanks.

Picky, ain't 'cha? Tom
I'd never heard of a scaffold nail. Here in O-ree-gone we call them duplex nails. Or the slang "dupes". SH
Slowhand responds:
Ah, well. The news had to get there sooner or later. First time I heard them called scaffold nails was some time around '56, while--oddly enough--getting ready to build a scaffold. My boss sent me off to get some, with me thinking it was a new version of a left-handed monkey wrench search. It wasn't.

And left-handed monkey wrenches actually *do* exist, too.
I've got one in my toolbox.
