Harry's conflicts : life sketches
Harry's Conflicts is a religious juvenile book from 1872, written by Henry Clay Fish and published in Philadelphia by the Bible and Publication Society for young readers. The pictures are black-and-white wood engravings: a rotated farm scene with a house and trees, a group of soldiers in a tent around a drum with an officer standing, a boy reading while seated on a bench, and a decorative dragon-head ornament. A designer could draw on the crisp hatching and the period realism of the scenes, and on the ornament for headpieces.
