Culled from newspapers and magazines from 1798 to today in America, Ireland, Great Britain, and Europe, these graphic, witty, and often highly provocative 200 plus cartoons are accompanied by informative notes explaining the historical context as well as lucid interpretations of each key period. General reader and specialist alike will find much here to enjoy, laugh at, and learn from.
