What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Aesop is said to have lived in the sixth century B.C., a slave on the Greek island of Samos. The eternally entertaining tales attributed to him-in which the fates of sly foxes, wicked wolves, industrious ants, and others, suggest what our own behaviors should (or should not) be-have been universal “best-sellers” since before L’Estrange’s definitive 1692 English translation. Gooden’s superb engravings were first published in 1936 in a limited edition.
