hardcover, slipcase. 8.5 x 11 inches. hardcover, slipcase. 688 pages in two volumes. This work for the first time presents the complete transcription of the diary of Alexander Anderson (1775-1870), the father of wood engraving in America. It starts at the beginning of his career and covers almost six years of daily entries. Comp…rehensive footnotes identify the books he illustrated during those years (included in a checklist), literature he sought to help him in engraving techniques, his earnings from commissions, and more. Ten chapters from author Jane R. Pomeroy explore themes apparent in the Diary: the places and persons he mentioned and the social climate and urban history that he experienced. An Appendix lists some 300 books that he mentioned reading. As might be expected, during the almost six years he kept the Diary, Anderson changed and matured. He was eighteen years old the first year and twenty-four at the last entry in June, 1799. His life during those six years shaped his work. By the end of the Diary, he had married, lived through the deaths of his wife and infant son and of all his family, and two of the city's yellow fever epidemics. It took these life changing events and his success in being hired by printers and publishers to make him abandon the career in medicine that had been chosen for him by his parents and turn to his first love and passion, engraving. The engravings mentioned in his Diary are from the beginning of his work, only a few of the over 9,000 images he produced in his ninety-five-years. He mostly devised his skills for himself, initially inspired by the great English wood engraver, Thomas Bewick. Anderson is often named as the first American illustrator who cut on the end grain of boxwood, which both allowed a resilient commercially practical woodblock and one with a wide artistic range. His diary is a record of daily occurrences, of patients that he did his best to help, of friends and walks in the city and time spent reading and playing his violin, and it allows us to better understand his history and temperament by showing his surroundings and friends, how they influenced the choices he made in his work and its character.

Slipcased. Condition: New; in shrink wrap. All volumes: teal cloth/boards. Black title blocks on spine with gilt lettering. Matching teal cloth slipcase with no lettering. 2600 pages over the 3 volumes. HEAVY at 22 pounds (10 kilos) and will require extra postage. This three volume, comprehensive bibliography focuses on the impo…rtant American wood engraver, Alexander Anderson (1775-1870). The author has selected over 1,000 of Anderson's engravings to illustrate this major bibliography. This work begins with a well written and researched biography of Anderson. There are over 2,322 entries. By the early nineteenth century, Alexander Anderson was recognized as this country's preeminent illustrator. Called the father of wood engraving in America, and one of its masters, his prodigious work filled publications of every kind: separate prints, almanacs, fiction, travel, children's books, poetry, Bibles, religious tracts, medical texts, and broadsides. He is noted for his warm and often slyly humorous depictions of children in the large number of juvenile publications that he illustrated. The growing number of wood engravers and illustrators who followed Anderson owed a debt to his skill and universally acclaimed artistic sense. He set a standard for successors who worked in the medium he had introduced. This study names and analyzes the publications where Anderson's work can be found. There are three indices provided, one of authors and titles, a second of printers, publishers and booksellers, and a third of artists and engravers. Libraries, museums, book collectors and dealers, and all those interested in graphic arts will be able to identify Anderson's work and add to the history of American nineteenth-century book illustration. No understanding of American illustration is complete without an examination of Anderson's appealing and masterly engravings. Co-published with The American Antiquarian Society. - from the publisher's web site.
