Excerpt from John Baptist Jackson: 18th-Century Master of the Color Woodcut<br><br>If he does not emerge from this study completely accounted for from birth to death, it has not been because of lack of effort. Biographical data for his early and late life - about fifty years in all - are almost entirely missing despite years of diligent search. As a man he remains a shadowy figure. I have traced Jackson's life as far as the available evidence will permit, quoting from the writings of the artist and his contemporaries at some length to convey an essential flavor, but I have refrained from filling in gaps by straining at conjecture.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
