Book Synopsis
This illustrated catalog was published to accompany exhibitions at the Grolier Club and the Stanford University Libraries in 2010. This catalog includes introductory essays about the life and work of the Shropshire novelist and poet, Mary Webb (1881-1927), as well as synopses of her novels. Webb's work is explored in depth through over 180 items, many of which are Webb's original manuscripts and typescripts. Included as a second volume is a special edition of Webb's hitherto unpublished juvenile work "Clematisa & Percival", printed letterpress on imported mould-made paper, with six full color tip-ins of artwork by William E. Bishop created specially for this publication.
