Book review: Thomas Fitzpatrick and the Lepracaun Monthly 1905-1915

In Thomas Fitzpatrick and the Lepracaun Monthly 1905-1915 the authors introduce us to a turn of the century Irish cartoonist, Thomas Fitzpatrick (‘Fitz’) and his magazine The Lepracaun Cartoon Monthly. Carole O’Reilly writes that this is a beautifully produced book that situates both Fitz and his magazine in the context of their time, describing the important role of cartoons to portray societal issues, including city politics, national politics, gender and labour.
