Man of Steel

a cartoon history of the Howard years

Edited by Russ Radcliffe

'This is a great collection, and one that makes you grateful there's an election coming. A funny, infuriating document of our times.'

Andrew Weldon (Readings Monthly)

Man of steel, lying rodent, or just plain old honest John?

John Winston Howard was the dominant figure on the Australian political landscape for over a decade. As we contemplate his final powerwalk into history, eyebrows to the breeze and bottom lip all aquiver, our finest political cartoonists survey the great man’s legacy.
