Lady Gregory presents a marvelous collection of Faery stories. These are amazing personal accounts of Irish peasantry encountering faeries, ghosts, and monsters.
This book presents a contrast to Evans-Wentz classic, "Fairy Faith." His fairies are indifferent or helpful to humans, while here,in the tradition of western Ireland, they are nearly always hostile and frightening. A fascinating view of folk belief in the lives of real people.
