Description

'The Little White Bird' is a novel from J.M. Barrie first published in 1902. It ranged from fantasy and whimsy to social comedy and dark aggressive undertones.
The story is set in several locations; the earlier chapters are set in the town of London, contemporaneous to the time of Barrie's writing, and involving some time travel of a few years, and other fantasy elements, while remaining within the London setting. The middle chapters that later became 'Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens' are set in London's famous Kensington Gardens.
This edition is beautifully illustrated by Arthur Rackham (1867-1939) who was one of the premier illustrators of the early 20th Century.
