Compiled and originally edited by Joseph Jacobs, and illustrated by W. Frank Calderon, this is a chronologically-ordered collection of Reynard the Fox tales preceded by a scholarly explanation of the Reynard the Fox beast satire and its cultural origins around the world.
The Fox is always guilty of dastardly deeds, make no mistake, but every time he is brought before the king for the purpose of justice, he outsmarts everybody and ends up better off than his accusers.
