The White Elephant; or, the Hunters of Ava and the King of the Golden Foot ... With illustrations by Harrison Weir
A boys' adventure novel of hunting and court intrigue in Burma, written by William Dalton and illustrated by Harrison Weir, published in London in 1888 for young readers. The seven arch-topped wood engravings set animals against dense jungle foliage — rhinoceros in water, monkeys in a fig tree, a tiger standing over fallen men — with quoted captions beneath, useful for animal silhouettes, hatched undergrowth textures and framed vignette shapes.
