<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>From the famed <i>New Yorker</i> illustrator comes one of the lost treasures of American comic strips.</b> <br><b><br></b> <i>White Boy</i> celebrates the life and culture of the American Indian of the Old West in a way that was unique in early twentieth century popular culture. In 1933, Price, a Wyoming native, drew on his boyhood days to offer an adventurous, humorous, coming-of-age story seen from the point of view of a small Native American tribe and their adopted teenage boy. <p/>Sunday Press presents the complete White Boy/Skull Valley saga, over 150 Sundays, reprinted for the first time in 80 years. <i>White Boy</i> remains one of the more remarkable achievements in comics, with pioneering storytelling and artistic creativity that stand the test of time.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>[A] sumptuous volume in color providing a rich sample of the work of a gifted artist with a sly sense of humor and a sure feel for the line. -- Thomas Powers "The New York Review of Books"<br><br>"This exquisite collection, from the indispensable publisher of vintage comic strips, Sunday Press..." -- Dana Jennings "New York Times"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Garrett Price</b> is best known for his work in <i>The New Yorker</i>, a source of both pride and consternation starting in the year of the magazine's birth in 1925 until his last published work 1974.
