Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Come sit by the fire - a world of enchantment awaits you in this treasury of classic Irish stories by folklorist T. Crofton Croker. From 1812 to 1816, he roamed southern Ireland, listening to his countrymen's stories of pixies, leprechauns, and other supernatural creatures. The result is one of the first collections of Irish fairy tales on record - and it's often considered the finest. Told in plain but colourful language with charming illustrations that capture the wonder of these tales, it became an overnight bestseller. An engaging mix of darkness and humor, the thirty-eight stories are filled to the brim with Irish wit and magic. In ""The Haunted Cellar,"" you'll meet one of Ireland's oldest families, with blood as thick as buttermilk and a reputation for hospitality. But what is the secret in Justin Mac Carthy's wine cellar that forces every butler to quit? In ""The Changeling,"" a new mother finds a just solution when her infant is replaced by a mischievous fairy. ""The Legend of Knockfierna"" teaches fearless Carroll O'Daly a hard lesson about interfering with the ""little people."" And that's just a taste of the delights inside. A rich reflection of Celtic culture, Irish Fairy Legends will entertain you and your family for generations. These tales of changelings, pixies, and other supernatural creatures were told to a folklorist who roamed southern Ireland from 1812 to 1816. Recounted in simple but colorful language, the stories feature winsome engravings. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
