Description
A glance through these pages will illustrate how deftly Canada’s editorial cartoonists captured the essence of the issues even if they disagreed on the verdict. Published since 1985, the book features the highlights of the past year’s editorialcartoons with wry, breezy accompanying text to remind readers which politicians shot themselves in the foot and which tycoonsfell from grace. As a bonus, there are photos and biographies of the cartoonists with individual examples of their work.
