Wood sets out to rescue George du Maurier’s early drawings from the back numbers of the magazines that buried them. He discusses the social world the artist satirised in Punch, the development of his line, his novels Peter Ibbetson and Trilby, and his life from a Parisian student studio to London fame, with a section devoted to the illustrations.

A short appreciation for lovers of Victorian illustration and of the Bohemian world of Trilby. Download the free EPUB.
