Myths and Folk-lore of Ireland
by Jeremiah Curtin
(Rare Book Collection)
Twenty folk tales representing hundreds of years of the collective Irish imagination transport readers to a world where everything is alive and anything can happen! Vivid descriptions of battles with giants, dead men who come back to life, humans imprisoned in animals' bodies, heroes with incredible strength, and more.
The myth tales in this volume were collected by the author in the West of Ireland, in Kerry,
Galway, and Donegal, during the year 1887.
