Remark:
This is a tight little book, 6 x 7¾. It contains ninety-six of Aesop's fables in a version done by Hachette in 1913 without attribution to an author. To go with those texts there are seventeen full-page illustrations noted on 99 and a number of other designs along the way. Six of the full-page illustrations are colored. For an inexpensive edition, this book does a good job with the art! There are two pages of notes on 97-98. I am not sure that I have ever seen Aesop's work divided into animals and people before this! See the companion volume on people.
