History does not fairly remember all the greats who passed through its pages. There are names that were worthy of celebration and glory, but they did not achieve in their lives what they once aspired for. Elias Abu Shabaka realizes this fact and presents in his book "The Drawings" a group of names of politicians and creators who were known at the beginning of the twentieth century, and presents a pencil picture of the lives of each of them, with a description of their character and customs. He writes about the details with a love that does not escape the reader as he receives his words, so that he forms the selected stories with bright drawings worthy of their owners, and celebrates their giving and their cognitive and artistic achievements that have been passed from one generation to the next.
