Abstract
-
en_US
Apparently a scarce book, since prices for it are always high. An impressive array of fables divided carefully according to source into two books, each with four parts. The Bookstall copy is in very good condition. The six colored illustrations (no black-and-white) are disappointing: like Detmold's, they are sometimes more impressive and grandiose than expressive and insightful; some also suffer from inexact color printing. The best of them, besides the cover's Eagle and Turtle, are WL (26), FS (95), and The Kite and the Pigeons (138). Others include LM (frontispiece), CP (171), and The Camel and the Mouse (234).
