The War Within -- One More Step at a Time (A Doonesbury Book)

G. B. Trudeau’s The War Within -- One More Step at a Time is a single-issue collection from Andrews McMeel, published in 2006, that gathers Doonesbury strips focused on the Iraq War and its toll on soldiers and civilians. Trudeau, the strip’s sole writer and artist, uses his signature blend of satire and empathy to chronicle the daily grind of conflict, from the home front to the battlefield. This volume matters as a capsule of Trudeau’s unflinching, humanizing take on a controversial war, offering a poignant snapshot of a moment in American history through the lens of his long-running comic series.
