About This Item
Ediburgh: Canongate, 1976. Hardcover. Good/Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Hutcheson, James. 101 pages, illustrated. The book is ex library and suffers from the usual library damage, including the head of the back end paper clipped to remove the bar code. The jacket was too tightly swaddled in its protective cover and is lightly creased, which will in time right itself. If library stamps are not an issue, the book is actually in excellent condition as it appears to have been rarely borrowed. "Wicked enchanters, a magic potion, comical kings and a fearful Tsar; bejewelled palaces and abandoned princesses are all in this unusual and beautiful collection of fairy tales, which have birds as their central theme." CONTENTS: The Caliph stork. The firebird; The king of the sparrows; The crow peri; The bluebird; The grateful crane; The Bird of Truth; The sworded falcon; The wild swans.
