Synopses & Reviews
Synopsis
This remarkable collection takes us more deeply into the tradition of folklore than those which are made on the Grimm principle of 'pleasing tales for the nursery'. It is entertaining and amusing, but nothing has been sacrificed to the latter element, nor are the narrators of the tales made more important than the subject. Illustrated.
Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
