Book Description:
This is a collection of fairy tales by Rev. David Bearne. The stories take place in the "Bright Ages" as opposed to the more common epithet "dark ages", where heroes saved the world, saints performed miracles, and also anything else was possible. Most of those stories are based on half-forgotten legends and footnotes to the history of England, charmingly retold by Mr. Bearne. - Summary by Carolin
