    This little book's collection includes 153 fables from twenty-seven different sources besides a few marked either Anonymous or Original: Arwaker, Cowper , Croxall, Denis, Dodsley, Dutch, Epictetus, Esop, Fables of Flowers, ...

    The Little Esop 

    Aesop (H.C. Peck & Theo. Bliss, 1855)
    This is the fifth version of this little book that I have found. Compare it with the first three and you find that the publisher is Smith and Peck in 1844, Loomis and Peck in 1846 and 1848, whereas now a Theo Bliss has ...

    Familiar Fables in Easy Language, Suited to the Juvenile Mind. 

    Corner; Crowquill, Alfred; Northcote, James (Dean and Son, 1855)
    Inscribed again and (in the same family) in 1916. The preface claims to shorten and simplify its original's applications; the reference seems to be to Northcote's original series of fables. (See his emblem on 110.) The ...

    Literary Fables of Yriarte 

    Devereux, George H. (translator); Iriarte, Tomás de (Ticknor and Fields, 1855)
    I am surprised to learn that (all of?) Yriarte's fables have to do with academics. The representation here is good and witty, though I find I cannot take more than a few at a reading. Best of the early fables are The ...

    Christmas Sports and Other Stories 

    No Author (Brown, Bazin, & Co, 1855)
    I noticed this companion when I found Fables in Verse in the same set. My reason for enjoying this book is that it uses two fable illustrations--one already used in that volume--to illustrate items here that have nothing ...

    Fables in Verse 

    No Author (Brown, Bazin, & Co, 1855)
    "Twenty-six years ago I bought a first copy of this book at Renaissance in Milwaukee. Here is a second copy in poorer condition. It has the same printer's error listed below. I keep it in the collection because it is a ...

    Fables de La Fontaine 

    La Fontaine, Jean de; Sainte-Beuve, Charles Augustin (Furne et Compagnie, 1855)
    Lovely engravings, eight by Johannot and four by Moreau le Jeune, besides an unclaimed frontispiece portrait of LaFontaine. Since there is no list of illustrations, let me mention all twelve, with + for the best. ...

    Fabeln aller Zeiten und aller Völker (Cover and Spine: Fabeln Aller Völker) 

    Walter, J. G (August Riese, 1855)
    Here is a little treasure. The title is a bit exaggerated. Let me list the sources for the twenty-one chapters that fill its 284 pages: Hitopadesa, Bidpai, Locmann, Saadi's Rosengarten, Aesop, Phädrus, Boner, Waldis, ...

    Child's Book of Fables 

    No Author (Leavitt & Allen, 1855)
    I have another copy of this little eight-page pamphlet. I have listed it under 1860?; its illustrations are colored, and it adds a green cover. Here the illustrations are not colored, and the cover paper has the same ...
