Abstract:
This account of the American political cartoon from 1747 to the work of contemporary cartoonists such as Mauldin and Herblock chronicles the careers of the famous figures and the political situations which provided the cartoonists with their material. It also offers a picture of the mass media (broadsides, newspapers and magazines) through which the cartoonists reached their audiences.
