About the Book

Henry Patrick Raleigh (1880-1944) was an American illustrator whose drawings of society life defined the Gatsby era. He rose from school dropout at age 12 to esteemed Saturday Evening Post illustrator within the span of two decades. During his nearly forty-year career, Raleigh served as one of the highest paid newspaper and magazine artists in the United States, the lithographer behind many of the United States' government's iconic World War I propaganda posters, and arguably the most prominent story illustrator of the Jazz Age. Raleigh was an incredibly prolific artist, having published 20,000 illustrations by the time he was 43. As a commercial artist working in the field of advertising, very few individuals published as many of their illustrations or earned as much income as Henry Patrick Raleigh. In addition to The Saturday Evening Post, Raleigh's illustrations graced the pages of the era's definitive publications, including Harper's Bazaar, Collier's, and Vanity Fair. They also visually embodied the words of H.G. Wells, William Faulkner, F. Scott Fitzgerald, and Agatha Christie. This volume is lavishly illustrated with rarely seen photographs and illustrations taken from the private collection of the artist's grandson, Christopher Raleigh. Almost every illustration in the book was scanned from the original, in order to attain an extremely high-quality level of reproduction. * Thoughtful introduction and essay by Christopher Raleigh on his grandfather's life and art * 130 pages of color illustrations on glossy stock with two large foldouts * deluxe hardcover with dust jacket

About the Author :
Manuel Auad has written about artists since the early 1960s and contributed to the World Encyclopedia of Comics and Cartoonist Profiles, among others. The first book in his series on Alex Toth won the 1996 Eisner Award for Best Comic-Related Book. He has also edited books on the work of Albert Dorne, Robert Fawcett, Franklin Booth, Al Parker and Jordi Bernet. Christopher Raleigh is the grandson of Henry Patrick Raleigh. In 1973 he established Raleigh Design as Central Florida's first commercial interior design firm, and has since become a highly coveted consultant in the field. Raleigh has received many regional and national awards for his innovative style of design. He and his wife, Kate, live in Florida.

Review :
"Raleigh represents a lost culture within illustration, one swimming in atmosphere and mystery, a monochromatic world of half-seen mysteries, a sort of smoky, urban elegance populated by breathtakingly stylish, gorgeous women." -- Mark Schultz
