Highlights

This is one of my absolute favourite books on english folklore and witchy tales. It's a chunky anthology covering a range of folktales from across the British Isles. You'll find fairies, beasts, ghosts, heroes, saints and more.

Perfect for your country pal, your folklore fan, the witchy inspired. A great gift.

Compiled by folkore expert Kevin Crossley-Holland, illustrated with wonderful wood engravings by Hannah Firmin. You'll find a wide variety of stories, drawn from every corner of the British Isles.

CONDITION

This chunky edition was published in 1985 by The Folio Society London. A hefty book with 393 pages, it comes with its original, if somewhat marked slipcase. In the slipcase it measures 9.5" X 6.5" (24cmx 16.5cm). Weighs 1.2kg.

In very good condition. What wear there is, is to the external. Some minor dents and tanning to the slipcase, but really that's about it. A clean, tight and attractive copy.

The book will come carefully wrapped in tissue paper and securely packaged for posting. Gifting? Let me know and I'll ensure the wrapping is suitably attented to.

I combine postage and refund overages. All international orders are sent with tracking.
