Reissue (1909, Charles Scribner's Sons)
(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Maxfield Parrish. Edited by Kate Douglas Wiggin and Nora A. Smith. This edition includes editor Wiggin's original 1909 preface to ten stories, among them the well-known tales about Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, Aladdin, and Sinbad the Sailor. Parrish's glowing oil paintings on glossy inserts are few but splendid and are an asset to a well-wrought text that is challenging by contemporary standards.
