This is one more in a large series of nearly identical books. Routledge published this same book with colorful covers; I have listed those editions under 1883? and 1887? Several things distinguish this book. It has a ...

After Aesop: Improvisations on Aesop's Fables
(Hamilton Books: Rowman & Littlefield Publishing Group, 2010)
True to the character of this book, I will say that it provides me a learning experience. First, I bought the book from an Australian dealer because I could not find it here in the USA. Now I see that Amazon is selling ...
