Thomas Bewicks (17531828) History of British Birds was the first field guide for ordinary people, illustrated with woodcuts of astonishing accuracy and beauty. In Natures Engraver, Jenny Uglow tells the story of the farmers son from Tyneside who became one of Britains greatest and most popular engravers. It is a story of violent change, radical politics, lost ways of life, and the beauty of the wilda journey to the beginning of our lasting obsession with the natural world.A refined and engaging biography, as beautifully wrought, in its way, as Bewicks woodcuts.New York TimesUglows clear prose sparkles like Bewicks River Tyne.Los Angeles TimesThis is a lovely book, not just in the quality and sympathy of the writing but in the care of its design and illustration. [Uglow] has turned a rich but undramatic life into a vignette as full of interest and details as one of Bewicks own woodcuts.Sunday TelegraphA splendid biography. But it becomes an endearing one by the scattered presence of so many of Bewicks woodcuts.Washington PostAnother triumph for Englands most innovative biographer, and a marvelous treat for fans of Bewicks beguiling work.Kirkus Reviews
