To read this book it is important to first strip ourselves of our modern scientific principles, because what centuries, millennia ago, was pure science, today sounds like a fairy tale. But no, many of the claims that have been forged in the history of mankind are based on much observation. Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Hindus, Chinese, Russians; all of them explained these observations that have been creating magical and fantastic stories. Auhors like Pliny, Aelianus, Virgil, Saint Isidore of Seville, Egyptian Papyrus, and many others of different cultures explain us the essence of animal's Nature, our essence. We explain the history of 100 animals, real or supposed, with an image created by AI and ending with a fable, often from Aesop or a Jataka tale. We have respected a classification adapted to medieval bestiaries: Insects (Vermin) Reptiles (Crawling Beasts) Marine Animals (Water Beasts) Birds (Air Beasts) Quadrupedes (Beasts Of Earth) Monsters (Fantastic Beasts) Dear reader, hold on to Pegasus, the winged horse and let your imagination fly.
