"Punch, or the London Charivari, Volume 100, February 28, 1891" by Various is a humorous collection that uses satire to paint a picture of British society and politics in the late 1800s. Through witty illustrations and writings, the book pokes fun at the strange parts of Victorian life and comments on what was happening at the time; it features funny stories and poems that look at the odd habits of people and society as a whole. One stand-out piece is a funny story a writer who says he secretly came up with ideas for famous authors, but didn't get any credit. The collection also includes funny poems about politics, books, and social habits, all told with a lighthearted tone and amusing pictures, cleverly making a point about fairness of recognition while joking about people's silly sides.
