"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 153, October 17, 1917" by various contributors, is a collection of amusing stories, artwork, and mocking remarks on society and the war in the early 1900s. Through jokes and satire, the articles share observations during World War I on happenings of the time, such as shortages of food and the odd ways of British life during war, while making serious things seem silly by making light of the German naval mutiny, bureaucratic silliness, and public feelings. The funny drawings capture what it was like back then, giving a glimpse into what people thought and how British culture looked in the early 20th century.
