About the Author:
A personal selection by Bill Tidy of his favourite quotations, profusely illustrated with his inimitable cartoons, and covering all aspects of human life, from Lord Curzon on the British Soldier ("I never knew the lower class has such white skins") to Alexander the Great on doctors ("I am dying with the help of too many physicians").
· Quotations range from the National Health Service to the National Lottery, from the building of Rome to pollution in London
· A hilarious collection of quotations, ancient and modern, selected and illustrated by the premier British cartoonist
· The ideal gift for anyone needing their spirits raised
Bill Tidy is probably Britain’s leading and most collectable cartoonist. His legendary strips include The Fosdyke Saga in The Daily Mirror and The
Cloggies in Private Eye. His style is instantly recognisable (and much imitated), and his genius for illustration places him among the greatest
cartoonists ever.
