Reviews
"An interesting journey providing snapshots in history from times when U.S. involvement in the war was no foregone conclusion and later moments when victory was no guarantee."
-Comics Alliance
"And now, rescued from the newsprint where they moldered unseen for over half a century, we can turn to the cartoons that let us know what happened when Horton hears a heil."
-Art Spiegelman, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Maus
"Scathing, fascinating stuff A provocative history of wartime politics."
-Entertainment Weekly
"Fascinating."
-The New York Book Review
"Vigorous, trenchant, and vividly remarkable."
-The Christian Science Monitor
