It is also the first edition of this translation by Vernon Jones. "The peculiar secret of Rackham's success in seizing upon the essence of the human and portraying it in animal form which is after all the basic device of the morality is unwittingly touched upon in Chesterton's delightful introduction to the 1912 edition of Aesop's Fables: 'There can be no good fable with human beings in it.
