This just showed up on my library's new books shelf. All of the
drawings are from Hottenroth (1884) and Racinet (1888). Each section
as a brief description of the timeframe along with captioned drawings.
Probably not too bad as a basic beginner's book. Definitely not for
anyone interested in
Thanks!
