Excerpt from Children's Books and Their Illustrators
With Cruikshank we encounter almost the first glimpse of the modern ideal. His Grimm's Fairy Tales are delightful in themselves, and marvellous n comparison with all before, and no little after.
The information in the book is very interesting and has some good details. I was expecting to see some illustrations. It was the main purpose of getting the book. Not sure how you can really do a comparison without the illustration components.
