Notes:
"This classic tale has been reproduced in miniature format by photographic reduction in facsimile of the 1903 edition. Not many people remember the French translation and the Twain tongue-in-cheek re-translation. It's fun. And also imagine his consternation on learning his story was more than two thousand years old. Some printing embellishments have been added, including the illustrations. Printing on Mohawk Superfine paper was done at the Schori Press, Inc. Production and hand typesetting by Ward Schori. Edition limited to 225 copies"--Printer's note.
