Although I do tend, from a personal standpoint, to prefer the simplified, Americanized retelling of this specific Reynard story that Willis P. Hazard did in 1861, the same year that this edition was published - as mentioned above, Hazard also produced a 1852 edition that simply reproduced the original text - this version of the story is still enjoyable. At thirty-six pages, it is a brief retelling, and one intended for children. The artwork is engaging, particularly if one enjoys etching/engraving style illustration as I do. I'm not sure other readers will be as interested in tracing the various editions of this particular Reynard story, and their relationship to one another, but I found the process fun.

Whatever text the reader might be interested in seeking out - the original story contained within The Comical Creatures of Wurtemberg, the original story as printed in American in 1852 or England in 1861, or the slightly revised American version of 1861 - they are all available online.… (altro)
