Enjoy this classic work today. These selected paragraphs distill the contents and give you a quick look inside John Leech, His Life and Work, Vol. II (of II): Look inside the book: He was right, and, happily for the world, he became convinced that, even if he had the power to fully 'carry out'-as we call it-one of his drawings into a completed oil picture, the time required would have deprived us of immortal sketches; and though he undoubtedly 'left off where difficulties begin'-as I once heard a painter, who was exasperated at Leech's sneers at his manipulation, say to him-he has left behind him work which will continue to delight succeeding generations so long as wit, humour, character and beauty are appreciated-that is to say, so long as human nature endures ... He had not been well; picking up 'a thousand stones in a thousand hours,' to which he likened his unceasing work, had begun to tell upon him; and in reply to my warning, that, for his own sake, to say nothing of the interests of Punch, he should husband his strength-for, I added, 'If anything happened to you, who are 'the backbone of Punch,' what would become of the paper?'-I can see his smile as I hear him say, 'Don't talk such rubbish!
