"...well-researched, rather scholarly book...fanciful illustrations, in both black-and-white and color..."-- Publishers Weekly . "Matthews...offers a very attractively presented collection...wonderfully illustrated...Not since the offerings of Jeremiah Curtin, W.B. Yeats, Lady Gregory, and others at the turn of the century has such a collection been assembled....most were culled from various books and obscure journals that have long been out of print....Each story is followed by a short yet informative note on the tale and its sources, and there is a good bibliography and index. This book would be attractive to younger readers as well as adults interested in Celtic traditions and is recommended for most public and academic libraries."-- Library Journal . "...collection is varied and brilliant...beautiful illustrations are bold and colorful."-- KLIATT . Used Book in Good Condition
