This is the true first edition of this book; it was published elsewhere under the title "The Unbroken Web". Adams has collected in this book nineteen folk-tales from around the world. Each has a special magic. A fine collection of folk-tales extremely well recounted by Adams. But the additional attraction of this book must be the illustrations: there are exquisite colour paintings of Yvonne Gilbert and drawings of jennifer Campbell which capture the mood of the tales beautifully. This is a fine copy. No price clipping; no previous owner name.
