Chris Schweizer says his work as a cartoonist is largely historical, and when you look at his drawings, it’s not hard to see why. We love their work; the amount of effort they put into these drawings is amazing, and to us it feels like we’ve discovered some old captain’s logbook with drawings from centuries ago. It was awesome and left us wanting more. We at The Beat can’t get enough of all these wonderful drawings in one book for just $16.
