Gulliver’s Travels, four-part satirical work by Anglo-Irish author Jonathan Swift, published anonymously in 1726. One of the keystones of English literature, it was a parody of the travel narrative, an adventure story, and a savage satire, mocking English customs and the politics of the day.
Retold by Agnes Grozier Hebertson for little children. Delightfully illustrated by John Hassall, the famed illustrator of “The Jolly Fisherman” holiday advertisement.
