The description of this book notes that it is an exact reprint of the original 1910 version, and you can tell. There are a few typos, and each page in my copy has the page number written out, as well as numerically noted at the bottom of the page.
The creatures are all interesting, and clearly tongue-in-cheek.
I do feel like they could have better formatted the illustrations - they're all printed landscape, so that you've got to turn the book sideways to look at the pictures. Which, not a huge deal...but all of the pictures are also enlarged from their original sizes, with the blur to show for it.
Still. My husband bought this for me as a tribute to my folklore shelf, so I love it.
