Abstract

en_US 160 timeless lessons in ethics, critical thinking, and common sense with more than 150 artful illustrations. This book's greatest feature may be the beautiful colored version of Griset's cover. It takes a full set of his illustrations and puts them to standard prose texts. The Griset illustrations have all their usual variations, including the very dark inkings (e.g., The Hermit and the Bear on 178); the exotic settings in which an eskimo thief tries to distract a dog (95); the nicely delineated (The Bear and the Beehives on 65 and the back cover); and the classic (e.g., WC on 19). There is a T of C on 183-6. Is this another print upon demand book? It was printed in La Vergne, TN, on April 4, 2011. Here is commercialism at work in a new area. I am tiring of people selling me contemporary copies of old books as though they were something different from that.
