Abstract
The title-page continues Based on ideas and drafts annotated in da Vinci's notebooks. Ten fables appear here. Leonardo's fables are excellent. They are generally a bit longer than normal Aesopic fables. The donkey that arrogantly disregards the ice soon enough sleeps on it, thaws that section of ice, and drowns. He creates his own doom. Soon the lake is again iced over, and no one knows the difference. The Walnut and the Belltower (17) remains a favorite of mine. Nicer than other similar books, this looks like another printed upon demand book done in La Vergne, TN. This copy was printed just eleven days ago!
