Wyss

Swiss Family Robinson (1879)

by Johann David Wyss

Written by a Swiss pastor to entertain and instruct his sons, 'The Swiss Family Robinson' was not published until 1814 when his son rewrote and edited the unfinished manuscript. This little blank volume is reproduced from the actual antique book, and would be a perfect touch to any miniature 19th-century scene.

Blank pages. 11/16" tall by 7/16" wide (17x11 mm). Vibrant, high-quality cardstock cover with readable titles and superb graphics.
