The One-Eyed Griffin, and other Fairy Tales. A Series of OriginalStories by Herbert E. Inman. With numerous Illustrations by E.A. Mason.
"This book contains several stories in addition to 'The One-EyedGriffin,' which is the chief item among them. This narrative is that ofa little boy who enters into the realms of fabulous monsters, where heencounters the giants Can't, Won't, and Don't Care, into whose terribleclutches has fallen the lady of his heart. With the aid of the One-EyedGriffin he succeeds in overcoming them, and the story succeeds, inallegorical fashion, to detail the difficulties which befall thediminutive hero. The illustrations are singularly happy in theirdelineation of the subject, and will win the affections of the youthfulcircle for whose benefit the volume has been produced."--_DailyTelegraph._
