Reviews

His early cartoons from this time are treasures, offering an intimate view of the reality of war. It's a perspective that photography, historical record and even poetry can't capture. * The Daily Telegraph * This handsomely produced book, illustrating much previously unpublished materials [...] is a remarkable document, one of the most vividly fascinating to join the growing bibliography of the First World War. * The Oldie * A beautifully produced and superbly illustrated account of artist E H Shepard's artistic output during the First World War. -- The Countryman
