Description
A dejected soldier makes a pact with the devil in this haunting, ultimately hopeful fairy tale, masterfully retold and vividly illustrated. Enter that sly opportunist, the devil, who wraps the soldier in the armor of a dead bear?s skin, fills its pockets with gold, and makes a dangerous and horrible wager.
