Legends and Stories of Ireland
24 chapters English Public domain
About this book
This is a collection of Irish folklore, framed by first-person remininces of the author, with some swatches of Irish 'dialect' and other comic touches. It was written before the 'Celtic Twilight' books, so its point is to entertain rather than record folklore. So the stories are simply evocative of the art of Irish storytelling. However, there are just enough ghosts, fairy trout, and other supernatural aspects to please the Celtic lore fan.
