Howard Pyle (1853-1911) was an American illustrator and writer, primarily of books for young audiences. In 1894 he began teaching illustration at the Drexel Institute of Art, Science and Industry, and after 1900 he founded his own school of art and illustration (later called the Brandywine School). His 1883 classic The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood remains in print to this day, and his other books, frequently with medieval European settings, include a four-volume set on King Arthur that cemented his reputation. He wrote an original work, Otto of the Silver Hand, in 1888. He also illustrated historical and adventure stories for periodicals such as Harper's Weekly and St. Nicholas Magazine. Pyle wrote and illustrated a number of books himself. He compiled a number of pirate legends into his volume, Howard Pyle's Book of Pirates (1921). His other works include: Pepper and Salt; or, Seasoning for Young Folk (1886), Men of Iron (1892), Twilight Land (1895), The Story of the Champions of the Round Table (1905), Stolen Treasure (1907) and The Ruby of Kishmoor (1908).

"A sensational debut novel . . . carries on every page Howe's unique passion, wit, intelligence, and spirit."--Matthew Pearl, bestselling author of The Dante Club and The Poe Shadow "A terrific debut novel . . . a captivating thriller of the hidden powers of women throughout the centuries."--Boston Globe "Literary alchemy . . . powerful enough to deliver a charming summer read."--Christian Science Monitor "Howe pairs a scholarly search for a missing book with the thrill of spine-tingling witchery."--Dallas Morning News "If you need some magic in your life . . . lose yourself in The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane."--Real Simple "A devilishly delightful read."--San Francisco Chronicle"Compulsively readable . . . The novel is a page-turner, but the characters, not the plot, dominate." --Denver Post "A witch story that will leave you spellbound . . . Once in a while, a new writer offers up a hypnotic tale of the supernatural that has the publishing world quivering with excitement. In 2005 it was Elizabeth Kostova's The Historian; in 2006 it was Diane Setterfield's The Thirteenth Tale. This summer, The Physick Book is magic."--USA Today "I thought I had found another Alice Hoffman as I began Katherine Howe's debut novel . . . It has definite Hoffman vibes, but with a little Da Vinci Code, Stephen King, and academic discourse thrown in to create a charming and different mix . . . Howe is masterful."--Portland Oregonian "This isn't the same old hang-the-sorceror tale. It has a bedeviling twist."--New York Daily News
