Harris. The Fables of Pilpay

Today's free book is The Fables of Pilpay. No author or translator's name is given, but the book appears to be based on Joseph Harris's English translation of the French version by Gilbert Gaulmin. The illustrations are by Thomas Scott.

For the table of contents, check at the bottom of this post below the image. The book is available at the Internet Archive, Hathi Trust, and Google Books.

The illustrations are by Thomas Scott, and I've made a Flickr collection.
