The Red Fairy Book is a collection of fairy tales compiled and edited by Andrew Lang, a Scottish writer and literary critic. First published in 1890, this book contains a total of 37 stories from various sources, including Grimm's Fairy Tales, Arabian Nights, and the tales of the Brothers Perrault. The tales in this book are all known for their vivid imagery and imaginative storytelling, and they range from well-known classics like Little Red Riding Hood and Cinderella to lesser-known tales such as The Nettle Spinner and The Twelve Dancing Princesses. Each story is accompanied by illustrations, many of which were created by H.J. Ford, a well-known illustrator of children's books at the time. Lang's aim in compiling this book was to preserve and share these timeless tales with a wider audience, and his efforts have certainly paid off. The Red Fairy Book has become a beloved classic in its own right, and its stories have been adapted into countless films, TV shows, and other media over the years. Whether you're a fan of fairy tales or simply looking for some timeless stories to share with your children, The Red Fairy Book is a must-read.ONCE upon a time there lived a man whose one wish and prayer was to get rich. Day and night he thought of nothing else, and at last his prayers were granted, and he became very wealthy. Now being so rich, and having so much to lose, he felt that it would be a terrible thing to die and leave all his possessions behind; so he made up his mind to set out in search of a land where there was no death.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
