Jewson, with the motto: "Facilius Vastare Quam Construere" (It is easier to lay waste than to construct) Surtees was an English editor, novelist and sporting writer, widely known as R. S. Surtees. In 1835, Surtees abandoned his legal practice and after inheriting Hamsterley Hall in 1838, devoted himself to hunting and shooting, meanwhile writing anonymously for his own pleasure. As a creator of comic personalities, Surtees is still readable today. Thackeray envied him his powers of observation, while William Morris considered him "a master of life" and ranked him with Dickens. The novels are engaging and vigorous, and abound with sharp social observation, with a keener eye than Dickens for the natural world. Most of Surtees's later novels, were illustrated by John Leech. Some of Leech's best work is to be found among his illustrations to Surtees's later novels, notably Ask Mamma and Mr. Romford's Hounds, which were published posthumously [wiki].…
