Description and Table of Contents

Description

Edward Ardizzone was one of the best-loved artists (and authors) in the English-speaking world. He illustrated more than 200 books and pamphlets, a good number of which he also wrote, as well as designing dust jackets and ephemera for a range of patrons. Brian Alderson first published a checklist of Ardizzone's work in "The Private Library" in 1972. Since then, with the co-operation of the artist and his family, he has expanded this work, describing in a full-scale bibliography of Ardizzone's books, dust jackets, ephemera, periodical contributions, war art, prints, posters and bookplates. There are several appendices, including an essay "On the Illustration of Books" by Ardizzone himself.
