North Yorkshire Folk Tales, Paperback / softback Book

North Yorkshire Folk Tales Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Whether hailing from the open Yorkshire Dales or the close-knit neighbourhoods of its towns and cities, North Yorkshire folk have always been fond of a good tale.

This collection of stories from around the county is a tribute to their narrative vitality, and commemorates places and people who have left their mark on their communities.

Here you will find dragon-slayers, boggarts and giants, tragic love affairs, thwarted villainy, witches, fairies, ghosts and much more.

Historical characters, as rugged and powerful as the landscape they stride, drift in and out of the stories, strangely transformed by the mists of legend.

North Yorkshire Folk Tales features Dick Turpin, General Wade, St Oswald, Mother Shipton and Ragnar Hairy Breeches, among others.

These intriguing stories, brought to life with charming illustrations, will be enjoyed by readers time and again.
