- Abstract
- en_US This book relates to two others in the collection. What I write here can surely be refined by those who know the series of books better. A series began with "Forensic Fables" in 1926. "Further Forensic Fables" appeared in 1928, and I have a copy of that. "Final Forensic Fables" appeared in 1929, with a second series in 1932. Then "Fifty Forensic Fables: A Selection" appeared in 1949. I have a copy. Finally "Forensic Fables: Complete Edition" came out in 1961. This is that book, but just how it derives from the earlier four I cannot say. It is not true, as I had hoped, that I could reconstruct parts of this book from the T of C for those two books already in the collection. This book is 456 pages long and contains 110 fables numbered in the beginning T of C. There seems to be a full-page illustration for each fable. As I wrote of the earliest volume I have from the series, the book does for the legal profession in England what George Ade's fables do more broadly. These are enjoyable tales with pleasing caricatures. All the actors are humans. What once was "Butterworth and Company" is now Butterworths.
