| Summary | "Benjamin Disraeli, the Earl of Beaconsfield, K.G." by Leech, Doyle, and Tenniel is a collection of political cartoons published during the late 19th century, specifically from 1843 to 1878. This book presents a satirical portrayal of Benjamin Disraeli, an influential British politician and author, capturing his rise and challenges within the political landscape of his time. The work primarily highlights the humor and caricatures used to comment on political events and social issues through the vehicle of visual art. The content of the book comprises an array of illustrations that depict Disraeli's political career and controversies, often infused with a sense of irony and wit characteristic of "Punch" magazine, where these cartoons originally appeared. Readers will find commentary on various political topics of the era, such as the evolving nature of party politics, economic debates, and Disraeli’s involvement in landmark events, including his establishment as a national leader. This collection provides a unique look into the historical context of political satire and the public perception of Disraeli, ultimately reflecting the complexities of governance and influence during a pivotal time in British history.
