Meer oor hierdie e-boek

The Brown Fairy Book contains 32 stories from the American Indians, Australian Bushmen and African Kaffirs, and from Persia, Lapland, Brazil, and India. This charming early work, first published in 1904, is the ninth book in a series of twelve 'coloured' fairy books by Andrew Lang. The Brown Fairy Book – By Andrew Lang with Illustrations by H. J. Ford contains many traditional fairy tales such as ‘Father Grumbler’, ‘The Cunning Hare’, ‘The Wicked Wolverine’, ‘The Elf Maiden’, ‘The Enchanted Head’, ‘Kisa the Cat’, ‘Which was the Foolishest?’, ‘The Sister of the Sun’ and many more. Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist and literary critic, with a passion for folkloric story telling. Most of his volumes (including this, ‘The Brown Fairy Book’) were beautifully illustrated by Henry J. Ford (1860 – 1941), an inordinately talented artist who came to public attention with his illustrations for Lang. The books captured the imagination of British children, and later became worldwide bestsellers in the 1880s and 1890s. This Brown Fairy Book forms part of Andrew Lang’s ‘Coloured’ Fairy Books series – a series of twelve collections of fairy tales, published between 1889 and 1910. Each volume is distinguished by its own colour, and all in all, 437 tales from a wide array of cultures and countries are presented.
