FANTASY OF THE 20TH CENTURY An Illustrated History

Ever since our ancestral storytellers created myths of monsters, lost worlds, dragons, and heroes, fantastical tales have transported us to these magical places beyond. William Morris, Edgar Rice Burroughs, and Robert E. Howard are just a few examples of writers who sailed off the edge of their known worlds into those of their own creation. In these beautifully illustrated pages are voyages launched by these celebrated commanders of the genre and more. Randy Broecker reveals how the fantasy story evolved over the centuries into the entertainment found in today’s  books, comics, and films. Collectors, aficionados, and readers of the genre will be amazed by the breadth of Broacher's history and should be eager to make it part of their collection! Out of Print. Condition: Fine Minus. Slight rubbing on the bottom edge of the book and on the spine corners.
