"Drawn to the Promised Land" maps the dramatic history of Palestine from the Balfour Declaration to the creation of the state of Israel. Through the keen satire of leading political cartoonists from Britain, the United States, and other countries, we see how Britain's policies repeatedly changed after it seized Palestine from the Ottomans in 1917. From the Arab riots to the persecution of European Jews by the Nazis and the appalling horrors of the Holocaust, the cartoonists captured every painful turn and agonizing development of events. The first sketchbook to be published on this controversial subject, "Drawn to the Promised Land" offers a truly unique visual insight into a period of history that still resonates today.
