Harry Fenn was one of the most skilled and successful illustrators in the US in the latter half of the nineteenth century, a time when illustrated periodicals and books were the primary means of sharing visual images. This handsomely designed volume documents Fenn's career from the 1860s until his death in 1911. Sue Rainey also recounts his sketching trips in the western US, Europe, and the Middle East, which enhanced his reputation for depicting far-flung places at a time when the US was taking a more prominent role on the world stage.
