Summary

"Punch, or the London Charivari, Vol. 150, January 5, 1916" by Various is a witty magazine that uses jokes and drawings to make fun of politics and life in England during World War I. This collection of funny stories, poems, and pictures shows what people were thinking and how they dealt with serious things like war using humor. In a lighthearted way, it looks at everything from New Year's promises to what soldiers go through, using satire to point out the silliness and difficulties of the time. The clever pictures add to the fun, giving a taste of how creative people were back then, and it acts as a funny yet smart look at how the war changed society.
