At this point in its life Peanuts did not investigate rage and despair to the same extent it used to. There is just not the same amount of angst. Perhaps Schulz had largely worked most of the anger out of his system. These strips tend to often go for a lighter type of humor and whimsy. They are still very often amusing if not as classic. I guess the activities suggested in them like hiking, tennis, jogging are reflective of Schulz life at the time. All up if you've been collecting this series this volume while not as good as his mid 50's and 60's work is still excellent.

What can I say about this delightful series that hasn't already been said hundreds of times before in the reviews of past volumes? Inspired book design by the ever talented Seth, witty and introspective introductions, and of course the genius of Charles Schulz's Charlie Brown (Peanuts). I personally own all of them except for 1969-1970 which I need to pick up. If you are a fan of any form of comic art pick these books up!!!!!

VOLUMES 15 and 16 of the Complete Peanuts are wonderful, they cover all the cartoons drawn by Charles Schulz from 1979 to 1982. I already own volumes 1 to 14 and this is a welcome addition to my collection and allows me to relive daily and Sunday comics from that time period. If you love Snoopy and Charlie Brown, you can not be without this great set.

My adult son has this at the top of his Christmas list each year. With Amazons free shipping policy, it is a very affordable gift for anyone who grew up loving the Peanuts gang.

Can't wait for the next editions of the Peanuts yearly strips to come out. Wish that they would just get it over with and have them all available now. A must have for Peanuts enthusiasts.

It's always a great pleasure when the parcel arrives knowing you're going to have great smiles and laughs reading on your own then feeling the urge to share such or such story with others ! And the presentation is really very good and handy !

I bought these for my 8yr old daughter who is a HUGE comics & Peanuts fan! She will love them! They are beautifully illustrated books.

These yearly sets are the greatest thing ever released. being able to see the genius of Mr. Schultz and catch every strip that he wrote has always been a goal for me, and now with these volumes I can make it happen. Cannot wait till next year for the next set.

We have been buying this boxed set for our Daughter every Christmas since it was first released and its always great to re-read - truly a great gift every year
