A fresh and readable account of a world long vanished. The bustling life of the early 19th century has disappeared, but it is infinitely recoverable in the etchings and drawings of Phiz himself

Synopsis
Hablot Knight Brown-- known as " Phiz" -- was the greatest illustrator of Charles Dickens' fiction. In a collaboration that lasted for a quarter of a century, Phiz' s drawings brought to life a galaxy of immortal characters. Fittingly, Phiz himself-- from the mystery of his birth onwards-- led a life as rich as any novel. In this lively memoir, Phiz' great-great-granddaughter traces his path to fame in a tale bustling with color and adventure. Based on a wealth of unpublished material and brimming with Phiz' s delicious illustrations, this is the perfect book for all who love Dickens and the hidden byways of Victorian life., Hablot Knight Brownknown as Phiz was the greatest illustrator of Charles Dickens fiction.

    This delivery was earliest date! Condition, value, quality - all as described. (My mistake was not requiring the publishing date to be 1958. This was 1977.) This IS a Viking Portable Library copy of Dante's Divine Comedy in English, translated by Laurence Binyon, but it is with a cover DIFFERENT from what was shown. The tracking number was listed as from "UPS", but should have been listed as from "USPS." Contact with this seller alleviated tracking issues. I recommend this seller! Thank you!
