When Colin W. Richardson first encountered
the paintings of the Cumbrian artist Edward Thompson he could
not find any biographical information on the work or the life
of the artist. So he ended up compiling a book using recollections
from Thompson's family, friends and anyone who owned a Thompson
painting.
The book was printed privately with a limited print run of 1,000
and is now sadly out of print.
