About This Item

London: George G. Harrap & Co Ltd, 1929. Phyllis A. Trery.. First edition. The author has taken the dramatic works of Bernard Shaw and retold them in a jungle context, replacing the human characters with animals: an endearing if somewhat eccentric book brilliantly illustrated by Phyllis A. Trery.

'The Wizard was wise - but he knew nothing.
The Wizard was kind - but he cared nothing.
The Wizard did good - but he did nothing.
He was just himself.'. Small quarto, colour illustration, original decorated yellow cloth shows some mild wear yet a very good copy.
