About this ebook
Part of the successful county folklore series - this book is packed full of superstitions, customs and old wives tales. A great book for anybody in or around Yorkshire, or with an interest in the rich folklore of the United Kingdom. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900's and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
