An Especially Tricky People (A Doonesbury Book) #[nn]
In this 1977 collection from G. B. Trudeau, Uncle Duke takes on a diplomatic role as ambassador to China, aided by his new interpreter, Honey, while Ginny launches a campaign for Congress with Joanie at the helm. Amid the real-world buzz of the Patty Hearst trial and Kimmy’s uncanny habit of quoting Jimmy Carter, Trudeau’s sharp satire captures a moment of political and cultural tension with his signature wit. The story is drawn and inked by G. B. Trudeau, with additional inks by Don Carlton, and the cover features artwork by G. B. Trudeau and Garry Trudeau, with inks by Don Carlton.
