"The Grip cartoons: vols. I & II, May 1873 to May 1874" by J. W. Bengough is a collection of political cartoons reflecting Canadian society and political events during the period of the Pacific Scandal in the late Victorian era. This book is emblematic of its time, incorporating satire and humor to critique political figures and societal issues prevalent in Canada. The likely topic revolves around the political dynamics and controversies of the era, as captured through the lens of Bengough's artistic commentary. The book consists of a series of cartoons that provide sharp and witty commentary on various political events, figures, and public sentiments of the day. Each cartoon is a visual response to the political landscape of Canada, illustrating key events such as the departure of political figures, allegations of corruption, and the societal impact of government decisions. The illustrations range from light-hearted anecdotes to incisive critiques, making extensive use of parody to engage with serious issues like governmental integrity, electoral reforms, and public accountability.
