Victorian Fiction by John Carter
The National Book League was a precursor to the current Booktrust, and was set up in 1924 by the Society of Bookmen in order to promote reading, particularly among the young. To that end, the NBL issued Reader's Guides on a variety of subjects, each written by an author with expertise in that field and containing an annotated bibliography of recommended titles on the area. Originally published in 1947, this volume is devoted to Victorian fiction, covering a broad range of genres and subject matter. Illustrative figures and an index of authors are included.
Carter, John: - John Carter was born in north Wiltshire in 1952. He has always had a fascination with humorous illustrations, possibly stemming from early visits to the dentist and looking through Punch Magazine. A great admirer of the illustrators, Edward Lear and George Cruikshank, John has developed his own style over the years. In this first collection of Absolute Stuff 'n' Nonsense, John has created a cast of imaginary characters poking fun at everyday life and events through rhyme and illustration. John continues to write and draw, dividing his time between Wiltshire and the Limousin region of France.
