Cloth, 8vo, 219 pp. "The Bodley Head Monographs are short, critical accounts of the life and work of outstanding writers for children. The three Monographs reprinted in this volume are devoted to three very different authors: Lewis Carroll - an Oxford don; E. Nesbit - a would-be poet who began to write stories in order to support her family; Howard Pyle - the first important American writer and illustrator for children, whose work is perhaps not as well known as it should be outside his own country. Roger Lancelyn Green has been a lifelong student of Lewis Carroll's work and has edited his Diaries; Anthea Bell, the daughter of Adrian Bell, belongs to the third generation of those who as children enjoyed E. Nesbit's family stories; Elizabeth Nesbitt is a distinguished American librarian, lecturer and critic, and co-author of A Critical History of Children's Literature." - from the blurb. Very Good in Very Good dustwrapper.
