On December 20, 1812, they published the first volume of the first edition, containing 86 stories; the second volume of 70 stories followed in 1814. For the second edition, two volumes were issued in 1819 and a third in 1822, totalling 170 tales. The third edition appeared in 1837; fourth edition, 1840; fifth edition, 1843; sixth edition, 1850; seventh edition, 1857. Stories were added, and also subtracted, from one edition to the next, until the seventh held 211 tales. All editions were extensively illustrated, first by Philipp Grot Johann and, after his death in 1892, by Robert Leinweber.
I didn't read them all, but the ones I did read were kind of gruesome. I think fairy tales were a lot more gory back then. It's very interesting to see the original tales, and then compare then to how Disney has adapted them. Cinderella,for example, is completely different to the Disney version that we are used to. Definitely worth reading, especial the tales you are familiar with.
