- Abstract
- en_US This book reproduces the 1864 version published by Henry Holt. I do not detect any changes from that edition. Let me offer some of my comments from there. The advertisement following the title page claims that Aesop is the usual first book for learning French. LaFontaine is not mentioned; the French of the fables is taken from the Latin of Abbé Paul. There are fifty descriptions, one hundred fables (61-127), and a long dictionary (129-236). The earlier edition went through 237, and so I believe that there is a page missing, giving vocabulary after the word vue. Inscribed in 1871.
