Tales from Bernard Shaw.
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.
Price (AUD): $50.00 other currencies
