Well known for his poetry and caricatures, Oliver Herford lends his talents to An Alphabet of Celebrities. Each illustration features up to five famous faces, fictional or historical, from the beginning of time through 1900. Though each charming illustration of celebrities is accompanied by alliterative lines that may allude to their identities, the celebrities of 1900 are not always obvious to modern readers. This edition features a complete illustrated biographical index as well as a glossary of challenging words.

Front cover illustration is from the entry for E:
E is for Edison making believe
He’s invented a clever contrivance for Eve,
Who complained that she never could laugh in her sleeve.
