- Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2015Very enjoyable. Mr. Bissell is a tremendous cartoonist and journalist.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2018Love this book of interesting photos, cartoons and caricatures of the origin of the famous Patriot symbol. He's been "cleaned" up since his inception while the players have actually taken a step backwards. They could use some cleaning up, too.
How about going back to the real Patriot Before next season.
