The Fortunes of Hector O'Halloran and his Man Mark Anthony O'Toole ... With illustrations by J. Leech
A comic Irish adventure novel by William Hamilton Maxwell, issued in London by William Tegg & Co. in 1853 with plates etched by John Leech, aimed at a popular readership for military and sporting humour. The 28 captioned plates show tavern brawls, barrack and parlour interiors, uniformed officers and country folk in loose, sketchy line with light hatched shading, useful for figure groups and period costume.
