Continuing along the path he set out upon with Constitution Illustrated, R. Sikoryak herein puts his drawing pens at work combining the texts of the Declaration of Independence, The Emancipation Proclamation and The Gettysburg Address with a panoply of comics "texts" – covers, splash pages, and panels taken from comics spanning a century of American comics history.  Ranging from the iconic to the obscure – from Cliff Sterrett and Billy DeBeck to John Buscema and Gil Kane to Victor Moscoso and Gilbert Shelton to Mark Beyer and Peter Bagge to Robb Armstrong and Ray Billngsley to Mary Fleener and Dame Darcey to Kyle Baker and Ben Passmore, and many more! – these comics texts have here been adapted to  specific sections of the texts of the documents they serve to both illustrate and illuminate. 

For comics nerds, there's the undeniable value-add to reading this of the fun involved in identifying the artists and source of the comics, but all readers (including, of course, comics nerds themselves) will enjoy having the chance to revisit these foundational texts in the light of American comics history.
