Journeys through Bookland is a 1922 Chicago anthology of children's literature compiled by Charles Herbert Sylvester and published by Bellows-Reeve, arranged as a graded reading plan. Its pictures are pen-and-ink and colour-washed line illustrations of knights, medieval castles, and travellers, with a designer able to draw on their confident hatching, flat tinted fields, and period costume for storybook or heritage-style layouts.
