Hark! A Good Book!

Title: Hark! A Vagrant!
Author: Kate Beaton
Publisher: Drawn & Quarterly
Published in: 2011
Pages: 166
Kate Beaton masterfully skewers history and literature in this delightful collection of comics. From testosterone-driven macho princes to love-struck nemeses, from delicious anachronisms to blatant drama, this book has it all! No historic figure or literary hero is left sacred by the end of the panels... Oh joy to critics of history!
