Howard Pyle (1853 - 1911) was an American illustrator and writer of books for children. In 1900 he founded the Brandywine school of art and illustration. He is best known for his classic The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood and a 4 volume work on King Arthur. An excerpt from The ghost of Captain Brand reads, It is a great pity that any one should have a grandfather who ended his days in such a sort as this; but it was no fault of Barnaby True's, nor could he have done anything to prevent it, seeing he was not even born into the world at the time that his grandfather turned pirate, and that he was only one year old when Captain Brand so met his death on the Cobra River. Nevertheless, the boys with whom he went to school never tired of calling him Pirate, and would sometimes sing for his benefit that famous catchpenny ballad beginning thus. The Table of Contents includes, With the buccaneers, Tom Chist and the treasure-box, The ghost of Captain Brand, and The devil at new hope.
