The Book Of Beasts by T. H. White
A witty, erudite retelling of medieval animal lore that brings together translations, commentary and whimsical illustrations to explore the natural and mythical creatures of the bestiaries; it blends learned scholarship with dry humor to unpack the symbolic, moral and biological meanings people once read into beasts, using stories of both real and legendary animals to reflect on human character, faith and folly.
