Synopsis
Author Dr. Oliver Goldsmith's ironic poem, with its moral comment on British society, was originally published in 1766. Goldsmith, best-known for his novel "The Vicar of Wakefield," tells of a man considered good and kind by his neighbors who, contrary to the townspeople's prediction, survives the bite of a mad dog. Sadly, it ends up the dog who dies of biting this upstanding and pious citizen. This edition, originally published circa 1882 by McLoughlin Brothers of New York, is illustrated, in color and black-and-white, by the legendary Randolph Caldecott.
