"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 152, February 7, 1917" is a humorous compilation by various authors, born from the crucible of World War I. Through witty political cartoons, short funny stories, and clever poems, this book holds a mirror up to the quirks and views of society at the time. It tackles big things like how people felt about the war, problems in society, and little things about daily life in England during the war. You'll find funny digs at military life, lighthearted ribbing of important people like the Kaiser and a poke at the strange happenings in places like Greece, plus jokes about how people dealt with wartime struggles, like not having enough food and dealing with silly rules made by the government. It's a mix of laughing at the tough times and showing how people kept their spirits up through it all.
