| Summary |
These lively and entertaining folk tales from one of Britain's most diverse counties are vividly retold by professional storyteller David England. Their origins lost in the oral tradition, these 30 stories from Lancashire reflect the wisdom of the county and its people. From the Great Treacle Eating Boggarts at Sabden to the famous Pendle Witches at Malkin Tower, no stone is left unturned to discover the roots of the county. These tales, illustrated by a local artist, bring alive the landscape of the county's narrow valleys, medieval forests, and long coastline. |
