familiar with the source. It is not asking too much of a book of illustrations to properly cite the source. Dover is a reputable publisher and I never would have thought they would do something like this. Perphaps this is a failing somehow of the ebook as opposed to the print edition. This is why I am giving this book only three stars. Show Less
