Book Description

A facsimile of the 1912 edition, Avenel Books, New York. A new translation by Vernon Jones. With an introduction by G.K. Chesterton and illustrations by Arthur Rackam.

Yes, these are the classic fables of Aesop, the delight of chlildren for two thousand years. You know the tale of the tortoise and the hare, as well as many others. These fables are part and parcel of Western culture, on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Besides, kids love to read them! Sponge Bob and Harry Potter will be forgotten relatively soon; Aesop's Fables will endure for generations to come.

A Catholic publisher in San Francisco says, \"Items are not sold on approval. No returns or exchanges except for damaged or defective products. Problems must be noted within 30 days of receipt of product. Shipping costs will not be refunded.\"

A Catholic publisher in New Jersey says that refunds are granted for products that are damaged in transit or defective in nature. \"No return will be accepted unless it has been approved previously by phone and assigned a return material authorization number.\"
