Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best known today as the illustrator of Lewis Carroll's Alice books, John Tenniel was one of the Victorian era's chief political cartoonists. This extensively illustrated book is the first to draw almost exclusively on primary sources in family collections, public archives, and other depositories. Frankie Morris examines Tenniel's life and work, producing a book that is not only a definitive resource for scholars and collectors but one that can be easily enjoyed by everyone interested in Victorian life and art, social history, journalism and political cartoons, and illustrated books. In the first part of the book, Morris looks at Tenniel the man. From his sunny childhood and early enthusiasm for sports, theatre, and medievalism to his flirtation with high art and his fifty years with the London journal Punch, Tenniel is shown to have been the sociable and urbane humorist revealed in his drawings. Tenniel's countrymen thought his work would embody for future historians the 'trend and character' of Victorian thought and life. Morris assesses to what extent that prediction has been fulfilled. The biography is followed by three sections on Tenniel's work, consisting of thirteen independent essays in which the author examines Tenniel's methods and his earlier book illustrations, the Alice pictures, and the Punch cartoons. For lovers of Alice, Morris offers six chapters on Tenniel's work for Carroll. These reveal demonstrable links with Christmas pantomimes, Punch and Judy shows, nursery toys, magic lanterns, nineteenth-century grotesques, Gothic revivalism, and social caricatures. Morris also demonstrates how Tenniel's cartoons depicted the key political questions of his day, from the Eastern Question to Lincoln and the American Civil War, examining their assumptions, devices, and evolving strategies. The definitive study of both the man and the work, Artist of Wonderland gives an unprecedented view of the cartoonist who mythologized the world for generations of Britons.

We were not strangers to each other when our Western pilgrimage began. It was a little doubt ful if they were equal to the task, but our associations had been SO pleasant I could not leave them behind. They were my constant com panions. They stood by me in every emergency. Through States and Territories they led me safely on. From St. Paul to Alaska they never faltered. Amid the wilds Of the Columbia Valley they were fearless, heroic. At the terrible Dalles, when a big salmon, maddened because he had come into collision with my hook, nearly pulled me into the river, -my faithful friends clung to the soil and preserved my life. We tramped together through the boiling water Of the National Park 5 down by the great falls of the Yellowstone and through rain, hail, and mud in the Grand Canon. When we emerged from our sojourn in the park, they looked sickly; I feared that the hour Of separation was at hand. During the night they met a young colored physician in the Pullman car, and when I awoke in the morning they were beside my berth, their cheeks glowing in ruddy health. Home was reached and my gratitude promoted my companions to the most exalted position. But Objections were made, they were so big and coarse, and to my great sorrow they were forced upon the retired list, where, amid their venerable com panions, they will relate the wondrous adventures of their journey.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
