Review
"Twenty-five years ago, self-proclaimed 'faery authorities' [Brian] Froud and [Alan] Lee published the first edition of their imaginative faery field guide...This expanded version...boasts new art and introductions by the artists; ...in its silver anniversary, the bewitching quality of its content remains."
