Fischer (1771-1829) was a minor German critic and travel writer. In this work he presents 111 very short fables whose morals he applies directly to the contemporary European political situation. The vast majority of the fables have animal actors.
A nice unsophisticated copy of an uncommon title of marginal importance. OCLC locates fewer than 15, none in the US. (Inventory #: fishfab)
