The covers of children's books dazzle readers with art, enchantment, and boldly creative designs. This is especially true of books created during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, what could be called the golden age of children's book publishing. During this time, advances in printing and more eclectic tastes made for the most colorful and daring books of all. Now this treasury of children's book covers from the late 1800s to the mid-1900s reviews the full parade of the era's cover art, from brilliantly illustrated fairy tales to early edition favorites and classics. 250 color images.
