add to cart   close window

The article focuses on the book "Red Tiger," by Phillips Russell, and illustrations by Leon Underwood. The book wings reader to lands distant in space and time on the magic carpet of admirable narration. The warm trade winds caress readers' cheek, the pungent aromas of sun-drenched fertility inflate readers' nostrils, the silences of tropic death and the hum of tropic life smite readers' ears. Two artists--Phillips Russell, author, and Leon Underwood, illustrator--shared in these adventures and in their telling. The eighty-odd superb drawings, seven in color, are illustrations in the full original meaning of the word.
