Summary:
"From The
Onion
Sunday magazine -- a compilation of the most important, most influential, and glossiest magazine covers ever produced by the hand of humankind. Seen by tens of billions worldwide, these are the unforgettable
Onion
Magazine covers that altered the course of human history and radically redefined your trivial life anew every weekend. Profound philosophical questions, the thoughts of leading cultural luminaries, harsh truths of existence, remorseless personal attacks -- you will encounter full-color graphical representations of all of these within this handsome volume. Whether you are a connoisseur of pretty pictures or are new to looking at images, this is sure to give you, the feebleminded consumer, far more pleasure than you have any earthly right to experience. Since its founding by a Prussian tuber farmer in 1756, The
Onion
has attracted millions of loyal fans drawn to its fearless reporting and scathing commentary on world events, human behavior, and journalistic convention, and it has expanded into an omnipotent news empire, with its companion website TheOnion.com, and multiple bestselling books, including Our Dumb Century (1999), Our Dumb World (2007), and The
Onion
Book of Known Knowledge (2012). Its home offices are in Chicago. Perhaps even more notable than The
Onion
newspaper is its Sunday magazine supplement, The
Onion
Magazine. First published in 1808 as a mouthpiece to relentlessly discredit Enlightenment ideals and as a vehicle for lucrative casket advertisements, The
Onion
Magazine quickly secured its place as the most popular reading material among the world's literate and semiliterate, with over 11 billion subscribers worldwide"--Provided by publisher.
