Bøker av John Trever

As the Albuquerque Journal's editorial cartoonist for nearly fifty years, John Trever provides insights into New Mexico's unique cartooning environment and the techniques and humor involved in the craft as he also shares his experiences covering local and national events and issues of the twenty-first century. The Art and Humor of John Trever: Fifty Years of Political Cartooning features the best, funniest, and most significant cartoons of Trever's career-showcasing his unique style, method, and voice-that captivated readers in New Mexico as well as readers throughout the United States through syndication. In addition, Trever provides anecdotes of how these drawings came to be and what kind of reactions they provoked, offers his thoughts about the state of editorial cartooning, and gives a frank account of what it takes to achieve, and sustain, a long career as a political mirror and as the political conscience of the Southwest.

Trever relates the story of the frantic scholarly explorations carried on against the harried backdrop of war-torn Palestine, an absorbing story of intrigue and undercover negotiations, personal risk and frustration, and tireless pursuit of the evidence.
