It's here! The latest hilarious collection of slings
and arrows from Garry Trudeau-
The Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist whose net-
tling political observations have made him a house-
hold name across the country. And, often, a sensitive
topic in Washington.
Now Trudeau moves still farther afield-following
Uncle Duke to China. Where, as America's new en-
voy, he meets a catatonically smiling Chairman Mao
and the kind of adventures you'd expect 9ith "an es-
pecially trick: people."
