Reviews
"Scathing, fascinating stuff. . . . A provocative history of wartime politics. Grade: A." — Entertainment Weekly "Vigorous, trenchant, and vividly memorable, Geisel's cartoons, accompanied by Minear's helpful commentary, are a salutary reminder of an era in which patriotism and liberalism went hand in hand." — The Christian Science Monitor "Great cartooning. . . . Minear's text gives solid context to the drawings resurrected in this collection." — Atlantic Monthly "Succeeds as both a dark-humored history lesson and a glimpse into the artistic development that would carry into Seuss's best known books." — Mother Jones, Praise for Dr. Seuss Goes to War : "Scathing, fascinating stuff. . . .

- e***u (283)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe listing was for a hardcover version of this book; however, I received a paperback. The Seller replied quickly to my question about this issue and issued a full refund - and let me keep the book. So, a diligent Seller for sure - and well packaged and reasonable timing on shipping. Thank you for the refund, and as you suggested, I'll likely donate this volume and seek the hardcover.

Unfortunately the U.S. Postal Service took 23 calendar days to deliver the book. It was shipped from Pennsylvania, to Atlanta, past Alabama to Texas, enjoyed several days in Texas, then to Minneapolis, Jacksonville, Florida, back to Atlanta, finally to Birmingham, and Huntsville. The seller was very responsive and I decided it was interesting to see if/how the book would arrive. Thanks, Joe
