"Although Surtees approached his publishers in July 1861 with the idea of bringing out 'Mr. Facey Romford' they preferred not to undertake the matter until Mr. Leech's services were definitely secured and there would be no questoin of such delays as had occurred in the illustrations of 'Handley Cross.' Leech promised however to being in January 1862 and the situation seemed sufficiently secure to set up the type but just at this time the artist held his first exhibition of oil paintings which proved so successful and diverting that the 'Facey Romford' illustrations were again postponed. Surtees in despair at last offered the book in August 1864 to The Field where is was refused. In March of that year Leech finally undertook the drawings but never lived to complete the work which was carried on byPhiz" Field. Field 225. Tooley 475. Schwerdt II 237. Podeschi 207.

REMINGTON Frederic AB. FROST and others illustrators AC. GOULD editor A. B. A. C.ABAA

Sport or Fishing and Shooting

186935984Boston: Bradlee Whidden 1869. Folio. 15 chromolithographic plates after Frederic Remington A.B. Frost Fred Cozzens R.F. Zogbaum Henry Sandham and others. 32 ff. letterpress. Expertly bound to style in full dark purple straight grained morocco. A rare large-format work on sport in late 19th-century America including Frederic Remington's first two published prints in color a rare A.B.Frost image of deer-hunting and images from Fred. S.Cozzens and other top illustrators of the day. The present work includes six angling plates three of fly-fishing four plates of game-bird hunting and five of hunting larger game. Each of the fifteen subjects is first described in general terms on a single leaf of text followed by a second leaf giving a first-hand account of catching or shooting the subject followed by a chromolithograph illustrating the first-hand account. According to Gould's preface the plates are all from water-colours especially commissioned for the work which were subjected to the critical scrutiny of a group of anglers/sportsmen who judged them for technical accuracy. The plates are as follows: 1. Killing the Salmon. Henry Sandham. 2. A Moose hunt. Henry Sandham. 3. Trout fishing. Henry Sandham. 4. Fly-fishing for Black Bass. S.F. Denton. 5. Hunting Antelope i.e. Prong-horn. Frederic Remington. 6. Catching a Tarpon. Fred. S. Cozzens. 7. Mallard shooting. S.F. Denton. 8. Catching a Mascalonge. Frank H. Taylor. 9. A Wild Turkey hunt. R.J. Zogbaum. 10. Sailing for Bluefish. Fred S.Cozzens. 11. Hunting the Virginia Deer. A.B. Frost. 12. A day with the Prairie Chickens. R.F. Zogbaum. 13. A hunt above the timber-line Big-horn. Edward Knobel. 14. Canada Goose shooting. Frederic Remington. 15. Stalking the Wapiti. Henry Sandham. The two plates by Frederic Remington Hunting Antelope Hassrick & Webster 434 and Goose Shooting Hassrick & Webster 435 are also listed by Peggy and Harold Samuels Remington The Complete Prints New York 1990 pp.152-3 with the comment that they are the first and second Remington prints to appear in color. They were preceded only by a series of four monochrome photogravures for John Muir's Picturesque California 1888 and two other individual prints both black and white. Arthur Burdett Frost is now perhaps best known for his sporting pictures and prints but an aversion to deer-hunting meant that he rarely pictured shooting scenes that featured anything other than small game. His image Hunting the Deer is recorded and illustrated in Henry M.Reed's The A.B.Frost Book Charleston 1993 pp.101 104-5 but the author was apparently unaware that it was issued as part of the present work which is not included in the extensive appendix of books illustrated by Frost.

Text and atlas both very clean internally. A very good set. "One of the grandest publications of the scientific expeditions in the American West.depicting the Grand Canyon in a series of magnificent panoramas" - CREATING AMERICA. The work includes illustrations by arguably the two greatest American topographical artists to record this era of westward expansion: William Holmes and Thomas Moran. The handsomely illustrated text volume was intended to accompany Dutton's impressive atlas of maps and panoramas of the Grand Canyon. Many of the plates in the text volume are from drawings by W.H. Holmes. The atlas includes eight beautifully executed maps of the region on twelve sheets as well as the ten sheets of views. The views include a number of images that are designed to form larger continuous panoramas. The greatest of these is Holmes' view from Point Sublime in the Kaibab: the three chromolithographed sheets numbered XVI- XVII if joined would form a single panoramic view with an image area measuring approximately 17 x 90 inches. It is interesting to note that the first of these sheets includes what may be a self-portrait and portrait respectively of Holmes and Dutton: two figures are visible at the edge of the canyon one is seated and clearly sketching Holmes while the second figure bends down to examine his companion's work Dutton. William Goetzmann calls W.H. Holmes "the greatest artist-topographer and man of many talents that the West ever produced.his artistic technique was like no other's. He could sketch panoramas of twisted mountain ranges sloping monoclines escarpments plateaus canyons fault blocks and grassy meadows that accurately depicted hundreds of miles of terrain. They were better than maps and better than photographs because he could get details of stratigraphy that light and shadow obscured from the camera.his illustrations for Dutton's TERTIARY HISTORY OF THE GRAND CANON DISTRICT are masterpieces of realism and draftsmanship as well as feats of imaginative observation." The team assembled to carry out this geological survey of the Grand Canyon included some outstanding talents: C.E. Dutton the scientist; Jack Hilliers the photographer; and Holmes and Moran as artist- topographers. The intention of the survey was strictly scientific but as Dutton wrote in his preface "I have in many places departed from the severe ascetic style which has become conventional in scientific monographs." This is also true of Moran and Holmes: both were clearly inspired by their subjects. The overall result is of a quality that would not be possible today. As Wallace Stegner wrote in his introduction to the 1977 reprint: "Later specialization has eliminated from scientific publications most of the elements that make THE TERTIARY HISTORY so charming. No report written as this one is written would now be published by any government bureau. No illustrators like Moran and Holmes would be permitted to illustrate it.A great book.THE TERTIARY HISTORY has kept its value precisely because it does not specialize."
