Publisher's Note
The late eighteenth century in England was the first great age of cartooning, and English caricature prints of the period have long been enjoyed for their humor and vitality. Now Diana Donald presents the first major study of these caricatures, which challenges many assumptions about them. She shows that they were a widely disseminated form of political expression and propaganda as subtle and eloquent as the written word. Donald analyzes the meanings of the prints, applying current perspectives on the eighteenth century about the changing roles of women and constructions of gender, the alleged rise of a consumer society, the growth of political awareness outside aristocratic circles, and the problems of defining "class" values in the later Georgian era.

Industry Reviews
"An absorbing glimpse into English politics of that time....An indispensable guide to these comic masterpieces, and one that will be hard to improve upon."
New York Times Book Review - Edward Sorel

"A stunning book...an important contribution to historical judgements....The book will appeal not just to the scholar but also to the general reader, and I hope it will reawaken interest in one of the greatest periods in English history."
Daily Telegraph (London) - Kenneth Baker
