Compiled by noted Irish author Padraic Colum, this treasury of time-honored tales from the fairy-haunted folklore of the Emerald Isle includes these favorite stories: "Fedelma, the Enchanter's Daughter," "When the King of the Cats Came to King Connal's Dominion," "The Sword of Light and the Unique Tale," "The Town of the Red Castle," "The King of the Land of Mist," "The House of Crom Duv," and "The Spae-Woman."

Brimming with sly humor, whimsy and imagination, these delightful tales offer hours of enjoyable reading. Nine full-page illustrations and numerous other decorations by Willy Pogány further enhance the text with a mood of timeless enchantment.
