Thirty folk-tales, simply told, drawn from all parts of Wales, and ranging from pure supernatural, like 'Twtti Glyn Hec' to stories of epic dignity like 'Gelert'. This collection of tales faithfully reflects the Welsh character with its ironic sense of humour and tragedy. Poems and jingles - the latter in Welsh - lend further character to the tales that will be enjoyed for their own sake by readers old and young. There are many characteristic drawings by the well-known artist, A.E. Bestall.
