{"product_id":"9780486117591","title":"Celtic Fairy Tales","description":"One characteristic of the Celtic folk-lore I have endeavoured to represent in my selection, because it is nearly unique at the present day in Europe. Nowhere else is there so large and consistent a body of oral tradition about the national and mythical heroes as amongst the Gaels. Only the byline, or hero-songs of Russia, equal in extent the amount of knowledge about the heroes of the past that still exists among the Gaelic-speaking peasantry of Scotland and Ireland. I have endeavored to include in this volume the best and most typical stories told by the chief masters of the Celtic folk-tale, Campbell, Kennedy, Hyde, and Curtin, and to these I have added the best tales scattered elsewhere. By this means I hope I have put together a volume, containing both the best, and the best known folk-tales of the Celts.","brand":"Dover Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47072845103344,"sku":"9780486117591","price":10.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780486117591_p0.jpg?v=1763708068","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780486117591","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
