The latest in Canongate's highly collectible and highly praised series, with an introduction by Jake Tapper

In the 22nd volume of The Complete Peanuts, you'll see the whole gang waiting . . . and waiting . . . and waiting for a bus that never comes. Charlie Brown finally hits a game-winning home run - off Roy Hobbes' great-granddaughter no less! Linus lobbies the White House to nominate Snoopy for an open Supreme Court seat (alas, it goes to Ruth Bader Ginsburg instead). Woodstock discovers his long-lost grandfather's diary, detailing a hard life in captivity (i.e. a birdcage).

"It's impossible to think of another popular art form that reaches across generations the way the daily comic strip does... at the pinnacle of that long tradition, there was Charles Schulz" - * Seattle Times *

"Republishing Peanuts in one gorgeous volume after another is really the first time we can truly take a step back, appreciate Schulz's work as a whole and ultimately wrap our arms around the accomplishment of Charles Schulz. Sometimes, happiness is a warm book" - * Huffington Post *

"These timely re-issues illustrate not only the skill and subtle brilliance of his work but also the origins of the form beyond simple merriment" - * Sunday Times *

"All sorts of important writers have marvelled at the glorious simplicity of [Schulz's] draftsmanship and his unerring jokecraft, all underpinned by a quiet melancholy and stoicism . . . by some miracle, the entire Peanuts oeuvre is gradually being republished in this country, by Canongate . . . in lavishly appointed hardback . . . Unlike almost everything you read as a child, they are actually better than you remember them" - * Spectator *

"As essential as pop texts get" - * The Onion *
