- Although it is hard to come by reproductions of Crane's work,
especially for realistic novels, there is an interesting book
by him in which he lays out his principles and understanding of
book illustration in the context of a history of book illustration,
from the time of illuminated manuscripts through the later 19th
century, see Walter Crane The Decorative Illustration of Books
(1896; reprint London: Studio Editions, 1994)
