The final volume of Lang’s coloured fairy books gathers tales from Celtic, European, Indian and African sources: the Shifty Lad, the False Prince and the True, the Jogi’s Punishment, the Heart of a Monkey and How Brave Walter Hunted Wolves. Lang’s preface pokes fun at dinner guests who assume he writes the stories himself.

A fine close to the series that shaped generations of young readers. Download the free EPUB.
