Item description from seller

"The legend is not so sharply defined as the myth or the fairy story but it is not always possible to separate it from these forms of stories. It does always concern itself with one or more characters: it assumes to be historical, it is almost always old and haunts some locality, and it is an admixture of fiction and nonfiction." This book contains 261 pages which includes 19 legends. Some of the better known include Hiawatha, Beowulf, Sir Galahad, The Lorelei, Rip Van Winkle, and The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The condition is near fine. The pages are clean and free of all marks, tears, and folds. There is a book plate on the front inside cover. The green cloth cover has a decorated front in yellow and shades of green. It has a small brown stain on front and the spine has faded to yellow but is still very legible. The corners are sharp and the binding is tight.
