The History of John Bull

By John Arbuthnot

"The History of John Bull" by John Arbuthnot is a historical biography of the fictional John Bull. This character has served a role similar to "Uncle Sam" and was used in political satire and cartoons. However, as with most things, there is some truth and history behind the character. He didn't just appear out of nowhere. This book explores how this figure of Britain came to be and what made him endure.
