Abstract

In 1776, Bewick did indifferent woodcuts for an edition of Select Fables. In 1784, T. Saint published a new book by the same name with new woodcuts by T. and John Bewick. In 1820 Charnley did a second edition of this book, with alterations and additions. (These are all distinct from Bewick's 1818 Fables of Aesop.) 165 fables, with tailpieces (not all by Bewick). The order and organization are different from those in my versions of Select Fables done in the 1870's; might these represent the 1784 edition? Excellent reproductions here in a book I am delighted to find. AI at front.
