This book contains twenty two tales of magic and mystery by the great Irish American storyteller, Seumas MacManus.
Here are stories of the days when heroes trod the earth. There are giants to be outsmarted, witches to be scorned, hazardous journeys to make and impossible feats to accomplish. There are bargains to be made and promises to be kept, and always it is a bold and daring youth, perhaps with the help of a dazzling young damsel, who conquers all. Here you meet kings and queens (witty and witless), wizards and hags, enchanted animals and the “little people” of Ireland.
The book is beautifully illustrated by Paul Kennedy.
Our copy is an American first edition in excellent condition.
