50 Classic Tales: The Western Folk and Fairy Tale Tradition contains all of our favorite historical folk and fairy tales, and will help immerse both children and adults in the West’s rich history of storytelling. The fifty tales included in this compilation were carefully selected from the works of Robert Louis Stevenson, Hans Christian Andersen, Aesop’s Fables, the Brothers Grimm, Peter Christen Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe, and others, and several stories cannot be found in other modern books due to their subject matter being deemed “politically incorrect” by publishers. Over 250 images and illustrations accompany the tales, drawing from the magical works of classic artists like Kay Nielsen, Arthur Rackham, Walter Crane, Maxfield Parrish, Edmund Dulac, Harry Clarke, Warwick Goble, Leonard Leslie Brooke, Paul Hey, Otto Kubel, Félix Lorioux, Milo Winter, Otto Speckter, Heath Robinson, and many more.
