NOTES

Originally published in 1904, The Brown Fairy Book is a vibrant collection of classic stories that have been shared among various cultures, scholars and critics. This is one installment of Andrew Lang's popular children's series. The Brown Fairy Book brings the nuance and history of the Americas, Australia and Asia into one compelling collection. With more than 30 stories to choose from, Andrew Lang delivers a captivating fairy tale catalog. This edition includes "How Geirald the Coward was Punished", "The Husband of the Rat's Daughter", "Story of the King who would be Stronger than Fate" and "The Knights of the Fish." This book is a worthy addition to Lang's previous entries: The Crimson Fairy Book (1903), The Violet Fairy Book (1901), The Grey Fairy Book (1900) and The Pink Fairy Book (1897). Andrew Lang delivers another impressive assortment of classic children's tales. The Brown Fairy Book is an eye-opening account of lesser-known fables that are both rare and impactful. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Brown Fairy Book is both modern and readable
