Since the passing of Charles M. Schulz in 2000, the legacy of America's most well-known comic strip Peanuts has been the subject of much conversation, particularly in regard to its persistence beyond the life of its creator. In the introduction, Lee describes the book as further considering "the historical and cultural context that shaped and reflected Schulz's 17,897 strips by contextualizing the comic strip in the larger Cold War milieu" (3). ...in "Cold War Snoopy, or, Do Beagles Dream of Electric Bunnies?," Brandt closes the collection with an exploration of Snoopy's "playbeagle" persona, which emerged as a "retreat from his human masters' demands" for coping "with anxieties and uncertainties as the Cold War progressed" (194).
