'Doonesbury' At 40

“I have been reading Doonesbury for most of my life. At the age of 12, my understanding of the immediate post-Watergate era was largely shaped by the Doonesbury compilations I would read while standing unobtrusively in the aisles of University Book and Supply in Iowa City, Iowa.” Except for the Iowa part, this is also true of me. I suspect it may be true for a fair number of you as well. In any event, this is a nice appreciation of Garry Trudeau’s 40-year career by cartoonist Tom Tomorrow.
