Reader's note

This is a gorgeous edition of Tales by Tolstoy, translated by Louise and Aylmer Maude. It includes beautiful black and white (and one full colour) illustrations throughout. The stories included are God Sees The Truth But Waits, A Prisoner in the Caucasus, What Men Live By, A Spark Neglected Burns The House, Two Old Men, Where Love is God is, The Imp and the Crust, How Much Lands Does a Man Need and The Empty Drum. “Tolstoy, who lived in the country, spent his time for some years mainly in teaching the peasant children of the neighbourhood. In doing so he discovered that there were hardly any well-written books simple enough for them to read, or even suitable for the grown up peasants; and later on he wrote a number of short stories which he tried to make short, simple and sincere.
