If you ever have viewed the Victorians as a humorless bunch you can think again after a look at Punch’s Snapdragons for Christmas. Akin to a 19th century Mad Magazine, Punch is known for its satirical content. From a ballad about Christmas Pudding to a series of one-liner jokes to farcical advice, this witty little book has something to make everyone laugh. One read through this book and one can see that maybe the Victorians weren’t so different from us after all.
