This spellbinding collection of stories once again gathers together folk tales from across England in one special volume.
Drawn from The History Press’ popular Folk Tales series, herein lies a second treasure trove of tales from a wealth of talented storytellers performing in the country today. 32 stories taken from the length and breadth of England, from magical threshers in Cornwall to a fairy realm in the Cheviots. Great to see John 'Northern Earth' Billingsley tell the tale of the Todmorden Bridestones for the West Yorkshire chapter.
From wandering kings and ethereal fairies to battling dragons and the fabled Apple Tree Man, this book celebrates the distinct character of England’s different customs, beliefs and dialects, and is a treat for all who enjoy a good yarn.
