Abstract
140 fables in French in the upper half of each page, with word-by-word English vocabulary in the bottom half. Beginning AI. Good condition. A short introduction expresses homage to LaFontaine and points to the colorful names the texts give to animals. Somehow as the dog approaches the water, the shadow recedes (Fable II) and the dog's instinct tells him that it is only a reflection! The book offers strong evidence for the use made of Aesop in the early USA. See Lindseth (Other, 23) for extensive comment.
