- Abstract
- en_US This booklet seems to be in series with The Wolf and the Lamb and Other Fables Illustrated by Stories from Real Life from the same publisher in the same year. As I mention there, there is another series, whose members' titles start with Fables Illustrated by Stories from Real Life and then add a Roman numeral (e.g. VII) and a subtitle (e.g., The Wisdom of Experience). Like them all, this volume has 31 pages and then a blank, and it features seven stories, each with a modern equivalent and a Harrison Weir illustration. This volume has a red cloth cover with gilt and two pasted-on pictures. The stories here include CJ, The Fox and the Goat, The Hares and the Frogs, DW, The Eagle and the Arrow, The Doe and the Fawn, and The Horse and the Stag. The covers are slightly bowed. Inscribed in 1877.
