005786London etc.: Raphael Tuck & Sons Ltd. First edition. Hardcover. Paper pastedown on boards of medium strength card. Cloth spine. Very Good. Scarce with no copies on OCLC First Search. N.d. circa 1910s. Reference to Queen Alexandra when she clearly was already a dowager queen and attire depicted consistent with the teens. Oblong 4to 24 by 33 cm. Unpaginated eighteen pages of narrative including insides of cover. Twelve of the pages are full color plates the remaining pages of the narrative are black white and red. Plus front and rear cover are in full color. The book tells not so much a story as much as the various events that might occur in the life of children from afffluent families residing in the idyllic countryside or by a immaculately groomed park -- goat-drawn cart rides playing with model ships flying a kite an afternoon tea etc. It is a world with nannies nurses pet dogs cats and gentle domestic farm animals. We believe that the book might have been issued while the First World War was underway for it offers up a reassuring escapism and there is one page entitled "The Tiny Army" showing little girls playing with a cavalry of toy wheeled stick horses but this is content that could plausibly have predated or followed the war as well. The illustrations have a winsome dream-like simplicity. One can see echoes of the Queen Anne style of book illustration epitomized by Walter Crane's output. Thus the appeal of the book would have been at least as strong for adults wistful for "a more innocent time". Condition: red cloth spine with rubbing and a few pinprick holes and closed tearing along the edge. Moderate amount of soiling to the boards. A faint inscription on the front cover.

In the mid-1850s Cook began to read works by John Ruskin and associated with a group of American artists writers and architects who followed Ruskin's thinking. Through this group he became aware of the British Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. In 1863 with Clarence King and John William Hill he helped to found the Society for the Advancement of Truth in Art an American group similar to the Pre-Raphaelites who published a journal called The New Path.Wikipedia Huntington hardcover
