David Apatoff's The Life and Art of Mead Schaeffer is out

David and I worked together on the Art of Richard Thompson book, and he's a talented guy. I've gladly bought most (all?) of his illustration history books. Plus I saw him in the Arlington Library parking lot today, and that reminded me to let people know about this.

The Life and Art of Mead Schaeffer IS NOW AVAILABLE!   MEAD SCHAEFFER was one of the foremost illustrators of the romantic era of American fiction. He worked for decades producing atmospheric and evocative illustrations for the top books and magazines of the day, and his romantic, swashbuckling, and theatrical paintings ultimately earned him a spot in the Society of Illustrators Hall of Fame. This new book presents a stunning overview of Schaeffer's long and illustrious career, featuring scores of illustrations reproduced directly from original paintings as well as rare tear sheets and photographs.
