Bode Diary Sketchbook


Book Description

Ask any cartoonist: invention comes hard. But not, apparently for Vaughn Bode, the inimitably gifted creator of Cheech Wizard, from whom characters, concepts and stories pinwheeled at a prodigious rate. His recently discovered diaries, kept from 1963 to 1973, offer even more persuasive evidence of the wild profligacy of his talent. Reprinted in a facsimile format, this four-volume series offers a wealth of finished cartoons, illustrations and strips, as well as tantalising glimpses of Bode classics yet to come, such as "The Man".

A Soldier's Sketchbook


Book Description

A unique First World War diary, illustrated with more than a hundred stunning pencil sketches, for children learning history and also for adults interested in a new perspective on the War and authentic wartime artefacts. Russell Rabjohn was just eighteen years old when he joined up to fight in the First World War. In his three years of soldiering, he experienced the highs and lows of army life, from a carefree leave in Paris to the anguish of seeing friends die around him. Like many soldiers, he defied army regulations and recorded everything he saw and felt in a small pocket diary. Private Rabjohn was a trained artist, and as such he was assigned to draw dugouts, map newly captured trenches, and sketch the graves of his fallen comrades. This allowed him to carry an artist's sketchbook on the battlefield--a freedom he put to good use, drawing everything he saw. Here, in vivid detail, are images of the captured pilot of a downed German biplane; the horrific Flanders mud; a German observation balloon exploding in midair; and the jubilant mood in the streets of Belgium when the Armistice is finally signed. With no surviving veterans of the First World War, Rabjohn's drawings are an unmatched visual record of a lost time. Award-winning author John Wilson brings his skills as a historian and researcher to bear, carefully curating the diary to provide context and tell the story of Private Rabjohn's war. He has selected each of the diary entries and the accompanying images, and has provided the background that modern-day readers need to understand what a young soldier went through a century ago. The result is a wonderfully detailed and dramatic account of the war as seen through an artist's eyes.
