Review
6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. "Phiz" and "Boz"; matched artist and authorBy Parker W. SnappFrom the fourth weekly issue of "Pickwick Papers" through most of the rest of Dickens novels; success measured by the number of readers rested significantly on the illustrations by Hablot Knight Browne (Phiz) equally with the genius of Dickens. The great; great grand daughter of "Phiz" has written an absorbing acount that satisfies my curiosity concening publishing and boook illustratiion; and the life of the artist; when Dickens popularity was at its height.
