Abstract
-
en_US
This edition may be in the competition for the longest title to a moderately sized book! This title is actually a bit misleading. Among the more than fifty offerings, I find only four that are fables: GA, CJ, TMCM, and FC. All are taken verbatim from La Fontaine. The English preface gives a good sense of the niche which the book's author intended it to fill: …I trust that the general complaint of the want of a first French Reading-Book, suited to youth of both sexes, is now effectually removed. The spine has been hurt somewhere in the last one-hundred-twenty-five years. The price is embossed in the cover: 2/6. Besides an advertisement for a follow-up reader, there are sixteen pages of book advertisements in the back.
