A fairy refers to a kind of mythical being or creature of legend found in European folklore. Found primarily in Celtic , Slavic , German , English , and French folk tales, the origins of the fairy myth are unknown and interestingly seem to arise from a collection of beliefs from disparate sources. First published in 1913, G. M. Faulding "Fairies" is a charming little book on the subject of fairies, exploring their history, origins, and nature with reference to literature and folklore. This vintage book is highly recommended for those with an interest in fairies and related subjects, and it would make for a lovely addition to any bookshelf. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with the original text and artwork.
