Handbook of Fairies

useful reference...I still find myself getting side-tracked by other interesting entries every time I pick the flaming thing up! A useful and enjoyable book. Pagan Dawn ...a must Touchstone Many theories have been put forward about fairies - whether their origins are the deities of pre-Christian religions, primitive peoples driven into hiding, or even UFOs. This is a detailed guide to fairies and other otherworldly beings. The different types of fairy and other beings are described, together with stories and legends about them. The possible origins of fairies are also discussed as are various theories about them, their links or differences from aliens, the passing of time in the Otherworld and other fascinating topics. When we consider the realm of Faerie, we should hesitate to attribute it to the mere superstition of our ancestors. Features marvellous illustrations by Marc Potts.
