Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Most Delectable History of Reynard the Fox
Cole, of South Kensington fame, in his earlier days made an attempt to reform children's books, and may be regarded as the precursor of their improved position to-day. Under the name of Felix Summerley he produced a number of children's books, well printed, well written, and tolerably illustrated, which some of us remember as the chief treasures of our youth. Among these was a version of reynaml - mostly adapted from Caxton's which I found, with some slight alteration, could easily be adapted for my present purpose, and, in the main, the text of the present book is a resuscitation of Felix Summerley's version.
