Mervyn Peake was an accomplished illustrator and his beautiful line drawings are scattered throughout the text, clearly illustrating his instructions, and showcase his love of the medium.

This little book will also appeal to the millions of Mervyn Peake fans who have become transfixed by the Gormenghast Trilogy.Has been out-of-print since the 1940s.
