Abstract
Here is another lovely mini-book from the Good Book Press of Peter and Donna Thomas. I already have their The Old Man and Death from 1986. The present volume came along with The Miser from 1982. There are two linoleum cuts within the sixteen pages of the book. The first is of the man and lion travelling together; the second presents the statue of a man subduing a lion. The story closes in unusually fine fashion here: 'You can see,' said the man, 'that men are indeed stronger than lions.' 'I can see,' said the other, 'that this statue was not carved by a lion.' There is a small diamond-shaped cover design of a lion. The colophon page here makes no mention of the Thomases. This copy is not signed. The colophon page indicates only that this is copy #35 of 70.
