- Abstract
- en_US This book represents a curiosity. It stands, as it were, halfway between the 1930 edition, with which it shares the cover picture by C. Hirlemann and colophon at the end acknowledging printing in 1930 by Paul Dupont in Clichy, and the 1926 first edition. With the latter, it shares the pages of advertising including mention, in both places, of the work of Benjamin Rabier. The front cover shows La Fontaine observing a number of different animals, birds, fish, a stagecoach, and even one resting human. La Fontaine is seated at an oversized urn, on top of which the hard-working fly wipes his brow after he has brought the stagecoach to the brim of the hill.
