The Tin-Pot Foreign General and the Old Iron Woman by Raymond Briggs

The Tin-Pot Foreign General and the Old Iron Woman by Raymond Briggs is a satirical picture book first published on September 21, 1984, by Hamish Hamilton. It critiques the Falklands War through vivid illustrations and a simple narrative style. The book portrays the British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher as the "Old Iron Woman" and the Argentine dictator General Galtieri as the "Tin-Pot Foreign General," using caricatures to highlight the absurdity of war.

This 48-page paperback edition is a striking departure from Briggs's usual children's books, offering a thought-provoking commentary on political and military conflicts
