This comprehensive survey of cartooning in South Africa clearly illustrates the role of satire as an outlet of dissent in difficult times. Beginning with historical illustrations from early colonial times and proceeding through the history of South Africa into the apartheid era and its demise, Mason, a South African cartoonist involved with the scene since the 1970s, chronicles the beauty and horror of both the overtly political and subtly subversive expressions of criticism and satire in this unique environment. The large format volume (11x9.2") includes nearly 350 cartoons with extensive historical background and notes on the artists. This volume will be of interest to students of South African history, politics and popular culture. Distributed in the U.S. by International Publishers Marketing (IPM).
