New Yorker Book of Political Cartoons

It`s hard to think of any cast of characters more deserving of cartoon treatment than politicians--or, of any cartoonists who could better skewer the foibles of this motley crew than the great cartoonists of The New Yorker. The cartoons in this book aren`t just about specific political figures. Rather, they span the decades of brilliant New Yorker cartooning on the timeless aspect of politics and politicians. This hilarious collection will remain evergreen--who knows, perhaps even long enough to see a woman elected President. Robert Mankoff, the cartoon editor of The New Yorker, has selected more than 100 cartoons from the work of the greatest cartoonists working in the English language. And bestselling writer Christopher Buckley, no stranger to either humor or politics, has written a wonderful introduction. This is sure to win in a landslide as the funniest book on politics--in any election year and in the years to come. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only. All rights reserved.
