What is Randolph Caldecott : the man who could not stop drawing about?

Randolph Caldecott is best known as the namesake of the award that honors picture book illustrations, and in this inventive biography, leading childrens literature scholar Leonard Marcus examines the man behind the medal. In an era when the steam engine fueled an industrial revolution and train travel exploded peoples experience of space and time, Caldecott was inspired by his surroundings to capture action, movement, and speed in a way that had never before been seen in childrens picture books. Thoroughly researched and featuring extensive archival material and a treasure trove of previously unpublished drawings, including some from Caldecotts very last sketchbook, Leonard Marcuss luminous biography shows why Caldecott was indeed the father of the modern picture book and how his influence lives on in the books we love today.
