Shepard's War: E. H. Shepard, the Man Who Drew Winnie-the-Pooh

Description

A personal, illustrated narrative of the First World War as experienced by illustrator E. H. Shepard.

E. H. Shepard is an illustrator who depicted many scenes of the First World War. He also famously illustrated Winnie-the-Pooh and The Wind in the Willows

His early cartoons from this time are treasures, offering an intimate view of the reality of war. It's a perspective that photography, historical record and even poetry can't capture. * The Daily Telegraph * This handsomely produced book, illustrating much previously unpublished materials [...] is a remarkable document, one of the most vividly fascinating to join the growing bibliography of the First World War. * The Oldie * A beautifully produced and superbly illustrated account of artist E H Shepard's artistic output during the First World War. -- The Countryman
