James Arnold (author & artist)

James Arnold (1909–1999) was an English commercial artist who developed a passion for the wagons that he saw on his cycling tours of the countryside in the pre- and post-War years. He set about producing painstakingly accurate measured drawings and watercolours of all the main regional types that he came across and these he included in a series of books beginning with "The Joyous Wheel" (Hamish Hamilton, 1940) and including "The Farm Waggons of England and Wales" (John Baker, 1969).

Other publications included:
*"The Countryman’s Workshop", Phoenix House, 1953.
*"The Shell Book of Country Crafts", Baker, 1968.
*"All Drawn by Hand", Baker, 1970.
*"Farm Waggons and Carts", David & Charles, 1977.
*"All Drawn by Horses", David & Charles, 1979.

As illustrator:
