FAIRY TALES OF ALL NATIONS—By Logan Marshall. The most beautiful book of fairy tales ever published. Thirty superb colored plates are the most prominent feature of this new copyrighted book. These plates are absolutely new and portray the times and customs of the subject they illustrate. The subjects were posed in costumes of the nation and time in which each story is set, and are unrivaled in rich color, lively drawing and dramatic interest. The text is original and interesting in that the famous fairy tales are taken from the folk-lore and literature of a dozen principal countries, thus giving the book its name. Many old favorites and numerous interesting stories from far-away lands, which most children have never heard, are brought together in this charming book. 8vo. Over 300 pages.
