About This Item
London: Arcturus, 2015. Pictorial boards, 192 pages, illustrations; 26 cm. Near fine. Firm binding, clean inside copy. Tiny stain/foreedge. Dust jacket protected in a mylar cover. A near-fine copy of the first printing. Profusely illustrated. "If any group of human beings deserves to be brought down to earth with a bump, it's dictators. In public, they strut around demanding our admiration. In private, their poisonous goons are secretly rounding up victims. Dictators hate ridicule. That's because only laughter has the power to penetrate the high-security walls around them and hit them where it hurts. Luckily, cartoonists are brilliant at this. This dazzling collection of cartoons features the work of many of the greatest cartoonists of all time, including Arthur Szyk, Herb Block, Honore Daumier, James Gillray, Will Dyson, E.H. Shepard, Illingworth, Edwin Marcus, Bernard Partridge, Ed Valtman, David Low, D. R. Fitzpatrick, David Levine and many others. This bunch are so good they never miss the target." - Publisher. CONTENTS: Introduction; Tyrants from long ago; Mussolini; Stalin; Hitler; Franco; Mao Zedong; Modern despots, demagogues, and control freaks.. 1st. Hardcover. Very Good/Fine. 4to. Collectible.
