Glubok, Shirley. The Art of the Comic Strip. Macmillan, 1979. 52pp. ISBN 0-02-736500-X (cloth).
Note: This book, part of Macmillan's The Art of... series of introductory books for children, has no table of contents; I have constructed one below, as each two-page spread generally covers one or two strips, including several black-and-white illustrations along with the text. Note that this book presents only the most cursory information, none of which is unique to this volume. --GK--
