Who is the fairest in the land?
Wilhelm Grimm wrote this many years ago and it comes from a story we know as Snow White.
It is a German Fairy Tale and was originally called Sneewhittchen and was tale number 53.
There have been several studies done and theories put forth as to the origin of the tale. Was it based on fact or pure fictional imagination.
