| Publisher Description: 1891. The compositions which form the current volume were the product of times and conditions so immeasurably different from those with which we have grown up, that it demands a very considerable effort to realize the circumstances contributory to their existence and popularity. These fictitious narratives present romantic adventures, supernatural episodes, and dark, if not even immoral, scenes. The work is divided into the following categories: supernatural legends; feudal and forest legends; romantic legends; descriptive and humorous legends. |
