What Our Customers Say...
Description

First printed as a series in Bentley's Miscellany, this collection of myths, legends, and ghost stories by English clergymen Richard Harris Barham proved immensely popular, and has been referenced in literary works by H.G. Wells, Henry James, and Rudyard Kipling since its its initial publication in 1837.
