Illustrators of Children's Books 1744-1945 (Mahony, Latimer, Folmsbee)

Illustrators of Children's Books 1744-1945, compiled by Bertha E. Mahony, Louise P. Latimer, and Beulah Folmsbee, is the cornerstone reference work for anyone who studies or collects children's book illustration. Two centuries of artists are surveyed, with biographical notes, bibliographies, and essays that trace how picture books grew into an art form.
