Abstract

en_US Here is an early version of Dover's republication of Ade's first two fable books (actually published in 1899 and 1900). It is highlighted by Bleiler's excellent introduction. All the fables but one are reprinted, and apparently almost all the illustrations appear again here. I have a copy of Dover's later version of this book for $1.50 with an orange cover and drum patterns for the simple information on the back of this version. Here the covers are white and the price is $1. The format of the bibliographical information on the back of the title-page is different, and it includes acknowledgement of Geoffrey K. Mawbrey as its designer. This version also has a printed pre-title-page as against the blank pre-title-page there.
