Editorial Reviews:

Contains information on over 500 fairy sites in the British Isles. Concentrating on places that are identifiable and able to be visited today, the sources drawn on range from traditional folklore to modern first-hand sighting reports. The entries give precise locations, including Ordnance Survey map references. All the different types of Little People are represented. They are mostly not the pretty winged fairies that appear in children's picture books. 'Real' fairies can be frightening. By reading these stories and travelling to the sites, the reader will gain a sense of what it is to inhabit that Otherworld of the fairies. This is a call to get up and explore the Fairyland that is all around us.

Customer Rating:      Summary: The Best Out There! Comment: This book is simply a MUST for anybody interested in fairies. It wonderfully detailed, with old folklore and real acounts from all over England, Wales, and Scotland, and is filled with pictures and drawings of the exact place where the sighting happened. It even gives precise directions on how to get there.
The only thing that I believe that should have added, was sightings from Ireland, as Ireland is well known for their fairy sighting and lore.
