Revue de presse
An A-Z history that's tremendously interesting and might even be an Important Social Document. EJ Thribb, `talking about Uganda', Dave Spart, Glenda Slag: the origins of all are explained, and the Eye's truly poisonous streak in the late 1970s owned up to. Not everyone on the staff is a hero. There's never a dull page. --Ian Jack, Guardian, September 24, 2011
BOOK OF THE WEEK: Many gems in this sumptuous coffee-table production, which is sure to be a Christmas bestseller. It's arranged as one huge index, an A-Z of Private Eye since the beginning, with articles on the first edition, its founders (Paul Foot, Ingrams, Christopher Booker and Willie Rushton), and the origins of just about every spoof byline and column for which the paper is famous. --Edwina Currie, Times, September 17, 2011
Excellent... What is the secret behind the institution described in this enjoyable if slightly self-congratulatory tribute as `Britain's first, most successful and indeed only fortnightly satirical magazine'? --Sunday Times, September 25, 2011
Private Eye: the First 50 Years, an A-Z -- so glossy that it dazzles the eye and packed with coloured pictures, unlike the magazine -- is different from the publications that are satirised as littering the "lounges" of suburbia. The beautifully written commentary, which holds the book together, contains less than complimentary stories about the men and women who made the magazine it celebrates. And the text dares to offend against even the most sacred of taboos. --Roy Hattersley, Times, September 13, 2011
