Herblock is the pen name of Herbert L. Block - the most honored cartoonist in the country. The Herblock Gallery includes 550 cartoons and covers the years of the Johnson Administration. His drawings include favorites, such as, LBJ, Everett Dirksen, Richard Nixon, and Charles de Gaulle. But Herblock's targets are not limited to personalities. More tellingly than any of his fellow political satirists, he comments on the great issues and clashing ideologies of our time. --from inside jacket flap.
