Description: First printing (First published statement, dated, with no additional printings noted). Tight, clean, flat, square, sharp and crisp book in pristine DJ. Gift quality. We did not acquire this from a publisher's distributor and that is the only reason this is graded Like New, and not Brand New. The traditional stories of the Celtic lands conjure up a world of mystery and imagination. Ghosts and dragons, witches and wizards, giants and the little people who promise untold riches-these are just some of the characters in the stories featured in this book. Taken from sources that draw on ancient traditions, these tales, handed down for centuries by word of mouth, have been retold in modern English and will appeal to readers of all ages. They will tell of the great heroes of Wales, Scotland, and Ireland. They speak of magical encounters with fairies, whos powers can cure the sick or strike people dumb. They reveal amazing transformations, from a frog to a prince to a king who turns into a tiny bird. They describe the vanity of princesses and the down-to-earth wit of country people.
