About this book

In February 1987 the BBC's QED series broadcast a programme called "The Foolish Wise Ones". Stephen Wiltshire, then eleven years old, was shown producing from memory drawings of London buildings, which moved Sir Hugh Casson to judge him 'a wonderfully natural draughtsman, really spectacularly good'. Doctors the world over are unable to explain why people like Stephen have such talents, but he has proved why we must accept his unique gifts at face value. The QED programme profoundly stirred its audience and hundreds of letters poured in from viewers eagerly seeking to buy a Stephen Wiltshire drawing. Stephen's trustees have decided not to dispose of any originals but rather have granted Dent permission to publish his extraordinary and moving volume which contains some of the finest freehand drawings of a brilliant artist.
