Kevin Crossley-Holland, an expert in the field of legends, has collected and retold some of the best of the East Anglian and Fen country tales. To the people who lived in this bleak, cold marshland of mist, dark paths and corners, the strange creatures and spirits that haunted and lived in the earth and pools were a powerful living presence. The eleven tales are an excellent mixture of the spine-chilling, the humerous, the ghostly and the poignant - Country Life
This striking collection of legends, exquisitely illustrated by Shirley Felts, now appears in paperback for the first time.
