Synonymous with finely crafted wood engravings of the natural world, Thomas Bewick (1753–1828) influenced book illustration well into the nineteenth century. Written between 1822 and 1828, Bewick's autobiography, also containing illustrations for a proposed work on British fish, was first published by his daughter Jane in 1862.
