The book explores the history, legends, and folklore surrounding the village of Bedd Gelert in Wales.

The first chapter provides an overview of the village's geography and natural features, including the nearby mountains and rivers. The second chapter delves into the legend of Gelert and its various retellings over the centuries.Subsequent chapters explore the history of Bedd Gelert and its surrounding area, including the prehistoric and Roman periods, the medieval era, and the 19th century. The book also includes a chapter on the fairies and other supernatural beings believed to inhabit the area, as well as a chapter on local customs and traditions.Throughout the book, Jenkins draws on a wide range of sources, including historical documents, folklore, and personal anecdotes, to paint a vivid picture of Bedd Gelert and its rich cultural heritage. The book is a fascinating exploration of Welsh folklore and history, and is sure to appeal to anyone with an interest in the subject.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1899 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
