Synopsis

Since the early 1970s, Stan McMurtry - better known as MAC - has been the editorial cartoonist of the Daily Mail. Now, forty-five years after his first cartoon for the newspaper, and in the year of Her Majesty the Queen's 90th birthday, MAC has compiled this wonderful selection of more than 120 of his very best Daily Mail cartoons featuring Her Majesty, from the 1970s until the present day. MAC's unerring ability to hit the target and capture the essence of human foibles has made him Britain's leading editorial cartoonist.

Media Reviews
His cartoons in the Daily Mail give me immense pleasure. I cackle for hours sometimes.
Wonderfully sharp and endearingly human . . . the nation's Number One cartoonist is still at the top of his game.
We like it when you put the corgis in.
One of my favourite cartoonists.
My journalistic hero. He draws brilliantly.
MAC is, quite simply, Britain's greatest living cartoonist.
