Summary "One Hundred Cartoons by Oscar Edward Cesare" is a collection of political cartoons written during the early 20th century, specifically around the time of World War I. The book represents a socio-political commentary on various events and figures of the time, predominantly exploring the absurdities and tragedies of war through the medium of satire and visual art. The collection features a hundred individual cartoons that reflect the context of its era, focusing on critical themes such as the impact of war, political leadership, and societal values. Each illustration encapsulates poignant messages often infused with humor, irony, and critique, aimed at both political figures and the broader societal attitudes of the time. By utilizing caricature and wit, Cesare engages the reader in a dialogue about the consequences of war and the nature of humanity, drawing attention to the tumultuous global landscape of the early 20th century.
