A READER: Excellent
Source of Irish Information Ever wonder why, when someone sneazes, you'll hear,
"Bless you?" Ever wonder, where the "May Pole" came from?
This book can help. Being of Irish blood myself, I was interested in learning
of my past. This text helped introduce some of the popular superstitions of
my homeland. If you are of Irish blood, or just wanna be, give this book a toss
in your shopping cart. You won't be dissappointed.

Fairy and Folk Tales

This book combines two
books of Irish folklore collected by one of the major poets of the 20th Century:
Fairy and Folks Tales of the Irish Peasantry and Irish Fairy Tales. In the foreward,
Benedict Kiely points out that Yeats was searching "not for the meaning of
any mystery but for what he already determined to find: a world of the imagination
far away from the spinning- jenny."
