The tradition of writing down folk and fairy tales in Europe began to flourish with the invention of Johan Gutenberg's printing press in 1450. Prior to this revolutionary development, these stories were primarily passed down through oral tradition.

Notable collectors of folktales emerged in various European countries. Joseph Jacobs from England, the Grimm brothers from Germany, and the Norwegians Peter Asbjornsen and Moe Jorgen are among the better-known figures in this endeavor.

This particular collection, formerly titled "Folktales of the British Isles," focuses on stories predominantly originating from England, Scotland, and Ireland. Within these enchanting tales, readers will encounter an array of fascinating characters, such as Conall Yellowclaw, the adventurous hero; Jack O'Lantern, the clever trickster who even outwitted the devil; and the foolish MacAndrew brothers, who squandered their wealth and ended up losing everything, even the roof over their heads.

Immerse yourself in this captivating collection and journey into the realm of wonder, magic, and wisdom as you explore the rich tapestry of folk and fairy tales from the British Isles. These timeless stories continue to captivate readers of all ages, leaving an enduring legacy in the literary landscape in this Amar Chitra Katha collection.
