| Description: | Hawthorne's Gentle, Charming Collection Of Classic Myths Retold For The Children Of His Day Is A Neglected Classic Addressing The Reader In Personable Victorian Fashion, His Prose Is Clear And Beautiful But Hawthorne Is Also Equal To The Task Of Less Genteel, More Vigorous Images Adding To The Pleasure Of These Retold Tales Is The Gorgeous Art Of Arthur Rackham, Both In Black-And-White Drawings And Full-Color Plates, Which Captures The Unearthly Beauty And The Unexpectedly Surprising Humor Of Hawthorne's Work Highly Recommended |
