#BIDENWON: The Art of Recovery depicts the political landscape that shaped the presidency of Joseph R. Biden.

With tongue planted firmly in cheek, award-winning author illustrator Cathy Hull wittily writes and scathingly draws her own conclusions as she takes readers image by image through four years of pivotal events and watershed moments during the Biden administration. Depictions include the 2020 election, the Jan. 6 attack on Congress and “unprecedented!” “unpresidented” [sic, Trump] impeachments, indictments, trials, and the tsunami of unintended consequences in the wake of the former guy and his MAGA movement.

No one escapes scrutiny. Hull targets both sides of the aisle and the Supreme Court. There’s an all-inclusive cast of characters—heroes, bullies, and victims alike. Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, Chuck Schumer, Ted Cruz, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Rudy Giuliani, Lindsey Graham, Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. And yes, of course, Donald John Trump.

In a nutshell, Donald Trump stands by all the misstatements and threats he has made. Constitution be damned. Joseph Biden is nostalgic about the future and endless possibilities. Still, putting country over ego and personal ambition, President Joseph R. Biden ended his fifty-year plus tale of reversal and resilience, dropped his bid for reelection, passed the torch and enthusiastically endorsed his running mate, Kamala Harris—the first female, Black and South Asian American to serve as vice president—to replace him atop the ticket. Intent on finishing the job, Joe remains focused on governing and delivering an ambitious big goal to-do list to the American people in his remaining time in office.
