Описание книги

The Fairy Mythology is a great collection of folk tales about fairies from all over the world. The book looks at fairy traditions from various countries and nations; Scandinavia, the British Isles, Germany, with folklore tales and the histories behind myths and legends of such mythical creatures as the Kobolds or Korrigans. The author took a thorough approach to the study of myth and folklore, and explored the parallels between the myth of a nation to the religions and mythology of other regions.
