Synopsis:

Originally published in 1933, this is a charming book of verse written by Martin Armstrong and illustrated with wood-engravings from the skilled hands of Eric Ravilious.

About the Author: Eric Ravilious (1903–1942) was a painter, designer, muralist, book illustrator and wood engraver. He grew up in East Sussex, and is particularly known for his watercolours of the South Downs. He was a contemporary of Edward Bawden and Enid Marx, having studied under Paul Nash at the Royal College of Art. He lived in Castle Hedingham before moving to Great Bardfield, a village in Essex which became a magnet for like-minded artists. He served as a war artist, and died when the aircraft he was in was lost off Iceland. Martin Armstrong (1882–1974) was an English writer and poet, known for his stories. He was born in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, and educated at Charterhouse and Pembroke College, Cambridge. He served in World War I in the British Army in France – a Private in the Artists’ Rifles, he was commissioned into the Middlesex Regiment in 1915 and promoted Lieutenant in 1916. He was included in the final Georgian Poetry anthology.
