The book features over 200 full-color and black-and-white plates, showcasing his versatile style in everything from his famous St Trinian's schoolgirls to war-related still lifes and humorous animal cartoons.
Hardcover, includes dust jacket, black cloth and silver embossed cover.

"Ronald Searle makes people laugh, and wince, all over the world. He has been doing it, with drawing, cartoon and caricature, for 45 years. The volume of more than 200 plates in black and white and full color is the best of his work, selected by the artist himself and published in the year of his 65th birthday."

Special note from us - we indeed laughed and winced when going through this selection of Searle's works. He is the ultimate graphic humorist, his illustrations are timeless and soul searching. We've sampled some above, hope you enjoy them
