{"product_id":"2940013625631","title":"FOLK-TALES OF THE KHASIS","description":"Without any apology I offer to the public this imperfect collection of the quaint and fascinating Folk-Tales of the Khasis, believing that the perusal of them cannot fail to cheer and to give pleasure to many.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOf some of the stories there are several versions current in the country,—sometimes conflicting versions,—but this in no way diminishes their charm. In such cases I have selected the version which appeared to me the most unique and graceful, and seemed to throw the truest light on the habits and the character of this genial and interesting Hill race.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSeveral of these tales have been published by me from time to time in The Statesman of Calcutta, by whose courtesy I am permitted to reproduce them in this volume.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eI shall consider the book amply rewarded if it bears the fruit I anticipate, by rendering more cheerful an hour or two in the life of its readers during these busy and strenuous times.","brand":"vladislav sogan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47147540316400,"sku":"2940013625631","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/2940013625631_p0.jpg?v=1763595531","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/2940013625631","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
