Army sergeant William Henry “Bill” Mauldin shot to fame during World War II with Willie & Joe cartoons, which gave readers of Stars and Stripes and hundreds of home front newspa- pers a glimpse of the war from the foxholes of Europe.

Lesser known are Mauldin’s second and even third acts as one of America’s premier political cartoonists from the last half of the twentieth century, when he traveled to Korea and Vietnam; Israel and Saudi Arabia; Oxford, Mississippi, and Washington, D.C., covering war and peace, civil rights, and the Great Society. Mauldin especially kept close track of American military power, its use and abuse, and the men and women who served in uniform.

Now, for the first time, his entire career is explored in this illustrated single volume, featuring selections from Chicago’s Pritzker Military Museum & Library, which has more than 4,500 Mauldin cartoons in its collections.

Edited by Mauldin’s biographer, Todd DePastino, and featuring 150 images, Drawing Fire: The Editorial Cartoons of Bill Mauldin includes illuminating essays by Tom Hanks, Colonel Jennifer N. Pritzker, Tom Brokaw, Denise Neil, G. Kurt Piehler, Cord A. Scott, Christina M. Knopf and Jean Schulz exploring all facets of Mauldin’s career.
