Publisher's Synopsis

George Cruikshank's Omnibus is a collection of satirical illustrations and writings by the renowned British caricaturist George Cruikshank. Originally published in 1842, the book features a wide range of subjects, including politics, social issues, and everyday life in Victorian England. The illustrations are accompanied by humorous captions and poems, reflecting Cruikshank's sharp wit and keen observation of human behavior. The book also includes a number of longer pieces, such as a satirical play and a series of essays on the evils of alcohol. With its lively and irreverent tone, George Cruikshank's Omnibus offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of nineteenth-century British satire.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
