is the first book-length critical examination of the political and social
impact of the political cartoonist Herbert Block—popularly known as
Herblock. Working for the *Washington Post*, Herblock played a central role
in shaping, propagandizing, and defending the ideals of postwar liberalism,
a normative set of values and assumptions that dominated American politics
and culture after World War II.

Best remembered for his unrelenting opposition to and skewering cartoons of
Joseph McCarthy and Richard Nixon, Herblock introduced the term
"McCarthyism" into the American political lexicon. With its unstinting and
unapologetic support for the liberal agenda, across a career spanning over
fifty years at the *Post*, Herblock’s work affords a unique lens through
which to interpret and understand the shifts and contours of
twentieth-century American political culture, from the postwar period
through the civil rights era into the Nixon presidency.

"A* defining study of arguably twentieth century America’s most important
political cartoonist. Well-researched and convincingly argued, this is a
must-read book for understanding the political and cultural life of modern
America.*"
—*Blake Scott Ball, Huntingdon College, author of Charlie Brown’s America*
"This book gets high marks for originality, and is very likely to appeal to
those interested in political history of the postwar period, political
communication, and cartooning in general. An important work."
—*Matthew J. Costello, Saint Xavier University, Author of Secret Identity
Crisis: Comic Books and the Unmasking of Cold War America*
