Sketches of western adventure : containing an account of the most interesting incidents connected with the settlement of the West from 1755 to 1794, with an appendix
Sketches of western adventure is an 1851 Cincinnati book by John A. McClung, a frontier history of settlement from 1755 to 1794 aimed at general readers interested in Indian captivities. Its three pictures are rough woodcut-style scenes of frontier figures in wild landscapes, printed sideways on the page; a designer might borrow their dense hatched texture and the mood of woodland danger.
