Terry Jones's War on the War on Terror
Bell, Steve New York: Nation Books, 2005. First edition. First printing [stated]. Trade paperback. xix, 163 pages. Illustrations. Known as one of the beloved creators of Monty Python's Flying Circus, Jones has been writing columns targeting the Anglo-American response to September 11. His wit and venom are particularly focused on the messianic vernacular of Bush and Blair and the semantics of the "war on terror. " This work proves that in times of high political anxiety, humor and irony are most potent antidotes to the spin emanating from the White House and Downing Street. The book is illustrated by Steve Bell, one of Britain's most celebrated political cartoonists and creator of the "IF" series in the Guardian newspaper. Condition: Very good. No dust jacket as issued.
