Editorial Reviews
Review
"Hy Rosen ... has indeed been there from 'Rocky to Pataki,' providing his creative flavor and profound insight with undiminished skill." - Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan - "Good editorial cartoons make a point, and great ones endure long after the players have left public life, and that's evident in these pages. Hy Rosen's cartoons are some of the best." - Senator Alfonse M. D'Amato
Product Description
From Rocky to Pataki is a lively blend of political cartooning and oral history, featuring forty years of drawings by award-winning cartoonist Hy Rosen. Covering New York State politics from the late 1950s to the late 1990s, Peter Slocum offers frank - and not always flattering - stories from more than fifty political players, while Hy Rosen's editorial cartoons paint a portrait of the Empire State as it soared under the grand dreams of Rockefeller, nearly went bust in the aftermath, and struggled to bounce back in the nineties. Interviews with Governors Hugh Carey, Mario Cuomo, and George Pataki; New York City mayors Ed Koch and John Lindsay; and Senators Alfonse D'Amato and Daniel Patrick Moynihan highlight this powerful look at four decades of political ups and downs in Albany.
