4.0

This book was a copied word for word record of Irish Folk Tales as recited from memory by tale tellers in Ireland around the turn of the 1900's possibly a bit earlier. The spelling is a bit off as a result as the author went with a phonetic spelling of colloquial words rather than"translation"

It can be hard to read as a result but it is amazing as a record of lost stories or they might have been lost had it not been for Mr. McManus.
