Alice B. Woodward – Illustrator

I found and browsed 5 books illustrated by Alice B. Woodward in June. They are all freely available on Internet Archive or Project Gutenberg.

The first one I found was published in 1895: Eric, Prince of Lorlonia, Or, The Valley of Wishes: A Fairy Tale of the Days of Chivalry. It is one of her earliest books.

She became a prolific illustrator in the early 1900s. The other 4 books are from that period. The illustrations are richly colored….full of detail…enhancing the story the book is telling.

The Story of the Mikado by W.S. Gilbert in 1921

She continued to work into the early 1930s so there could be additional books that become more accessible as the copyright expires.
