About the book >.>.> The folk-traditions of England are something more than an interesting collection of lovely horrifying or amusing stories with which our forefathers entertained each other before the days of cinemas and other mechanical diversions. They are a window opening upon the past through which we can look upon that far- away world in which our beginnings lie. Every old tale that has been handed down from father to son for generations every old custom that has persisted to our own or recent times sheds a clear and revealing light upon the slow growth of our race and upon those for- gotten beliefs philosophies and thought-processes which lie below the surface of our conscious knowledge.
