Keeping a Sharp Eye: A Century of Cartoons on South Africa’s International Relations 1910–2010 is by Peter Vale, with a foreword by Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu. It was first published in 2011 by Otterley Press, Johannesburg, and this copy is that first edition in paperback.
Keeping a Sharp Eye gathers political cartoons on South Africa’s place in the world over the century from Union to 2010. Vale looks at how cartoonists read the unfolding events in international affairs, often long before think-tanks and academics had their say, and how their work relates to the more formal study of foreign policy. The cover features work by Zapiro among others.
Keeping a Sharp Eye is a good choice for collectors of South African cartoon art, students of foreign policy and international relations, and readers interested in South African political history told with humour and bite.
Condition – Near Fine
A clean paperback with no notable defects to the covers, spine or pages.
