Abstract
This is a big, heavy, impressive collection of quite various stories, from Sinbad to Cinderella. Among the stories is AL, told at some length on 167-175. This story of AL is beautifully developed by the teller, Androcles, telling his grandchildren. He puts into good perspective what it was to be a slave of Rome. The illustrations well detailed, as is the text, here especially the colored illustration of he story (168-69). Androcles and the lion ended up settling, by this account, in Switzerland.
