Stories first were released in Little Folks Magazine:
Tales include: The Maker of Ghosts and the Maker of Shadows, and, The Mines of Experience by A. E. Bonser; Harry and Herodotus: Or, Tales of an Old Traveller by Sidney Woolf; The Stories of Ben the Sailorman by A. E. Bonser; and, Stories from the Edda by E. S. Buchheim. One of the leading literary figures during the Golden Age of British book illustration, Arthur Rackham's work is noted for its robust pen and ink drawings, which were combined with the use of watercolor, a technique he developed due to his background as a journalistic illustrator. "Arthur Rackhamâ s fanciful imagination gave his illustrations instant recognition, and his dedication to illustration kept him in the public eye for 30 years" (Hodnett, 233).
