1692049<b>Folio 8-1/2 by 13 inches contemporary full brown calf Skillfully rebacked with blind-stamped spine raised bands red morocco spine label. First edition of former censor Roger L Estrange s classic version of Aesop s Fables with copper-engraved frontispiece portrait of L Estrange and fine copperplate frontispiece of Aesop. In 1690 John Locke was the first to suggest Aesop as a beginning book for children. Shortly thereafter Tory pamphleteer and onetime Surveyor of the Press Roger L Estrange was commissioned to produce this edition of fables likely the first compiled expressly for children. He included many other fabulists besides Aesop notably a selection from La Fontaine within 20 years of the first appearance of any of his fables in French. It is highly probable that this was their earliest appearance in English Muir 24. Simple and somewhat racy in style L Estrange s edition was continuously reprinted helping to popularize both Aesop and the genre of fables among children. The most extensive collection of fables in existence this compilation also includes a biography of Aesop an alphabetical table of the fables and fables by Barlandus Anianus Abstemius Poggius and La Fontaine DNB.
