Latest Addition To The Spill Cartoon Library: Joe Farris’s A Soldier’s Sketchbook
Very late adding this to the Spill cartoon library, but better late than…
A Soldier’s Sketchbook was published in 2011 by (as you see right there on the cover) National Geographic. The book is textbook size (8″ x 10″, just over 300 pages). It’s packed with maps, photos, letters, drawings (of course), and a few cartoons.
More Farris, from the Spill’s A-Z:
Joseph Farris ( photo by Liza Donnelly, NYC, 1997) Born May 30, 1924, Newark, NJ. Died January 28, 2015, Bethel, Connecticut. New Yorker work: 1956 – 2010 (including two covers). Collections include: Just A Cog In The Wheel ( Bob Adams, Inc., 1989). Special mention: Mr. Farris’s memoir, A Soldier’s Sketchbook (National Geographic, 2012)
