94 pages. 20.5 x 13 cm. Title page engraving of a Friar by David Jones. Limited edition, one of 480 copies. Swinstead notes in her preface, "The pieces in this book have all been taken from pre-Victorian books for children." The last story a gem, the vagaries of eating cake. Interior contents crisp, bookplate of Richard D. Friedlander. TAYLOR & SEWELL. A158. Orig. plain white stiff boards, decorated paper cover. Very good.
