Abstract
Here is a fourth edition of a book we already have in its third edition, also from 1950. We also have an edition from 1951. This is a more substantial book than I am used to seeing from Israel. It has the familiar embossed silhouette of Krylov on its front cover. Apparently each fable receives one of Gutman's cartoon line-drawing illustrations. A good example, though larger than most, is the full-page illustration of "The Cook and the Cat" (97). It is nice to meet old friends in new and strange surroundings, like "Quartet" on 127 or "The Gardener and the Bear" on 147. I think that the arresting image on 281 is for VII 18, "The Poet and the Millionaire." There is a T of C on 389-91. The first edition was done in 1949 and the second in 1950. The spine of this book is breaking up.
