Greenhaven Press's series Examining Issues Through Political Cartoons makes this resource conveniently accessible to students. Each volume provides a representative and diverse collection of cartoons focusing on a particular current or historical topic and supplies essential context to help readers appreciate them. An introductory essay offers a general overview of the book's topic. Cartoons from many different sources are then presented, each with accompanying background and analysis about the cartoon, its subject matter, and its creator. Finally, each volume contains a bibliography and other tools for further research. Taken together, the contents of each anthology constitute an amusing and informative resource for students of social and historical topics.
