"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 159, August 18th, 1920" by Various is a humorous look at British life just after World War I, using jokes and witty comments to examine what was happening in society. The stories and cartoons share funny thoughts about the problems and strange things people did back then, like making fun of the civil unrest in Ireland, complaining about how expensive everything was, and laughing at how local leaders acted. A silly tale about "Sir Bowles" pretending to be a knight adds to the fun. This mix of light-hearted jokes and serious observations paints a funny picture of what life was like in Britain during the early 1900s.
