** "Punch, or the London Charivari. Volume 1, July 31, 1841" by Various is a comical magazine from the start of Queen Victoria's reign full of funny articles, poems, and drawings that make fun of what was happening in society, politics, and culture in London back then. It's got the kind of jokes and funny writing people liked at the time, from the early 1800s. Inside, you'll find very short, funny stories and drawings and poems that make fun of issues in society, politicians, and even people who thought too highly of themselves when it came to literature. Some pieces, like "A Rencontre with a Tea-Totaler," poke fun at getting drunk, while "The Diary of a Lord Mayor" makes politics seem silly and pointless. The writing style is very creative with language and has sharp observations about society. Overall, it's meant to be entertaining and make you think about the way things were. **
