About this ebook

The purpose of this volume is to furnish our younger readers of the present generation with a fresh supply of stories—half legend, half fairy-tale—of a kind with which the children of an earlier time were more familiar.

Herein you will find 19 illustrated stories from the Rhineland and old Roumania. Stories like:
The Jipi
The Serpent-Isle
Vîrful Cu Dor
Furnica
The Caraiman
The Stags’ Valley
The Witch’s Stronghold
Piatra Arsa (“The Burnt Rock”)
Rîul Doamnei (“The River Of The Princess”)
The Cave Of Jalomitza
The Nixies’ Cleft
The Flying Castle
The Silver Nail
A Doubting Lover
A Legend  Of Walpurgis-Night
Seekers After Gold
The Maiden’s Rock
The Water-Snake (Parts I And II)
The Little Glass-Man

The first ten of these stories are taken from the German of Carmen Sylva, who has kindly given the translator her special permission to add them to the following collection of legends.
Many of them are associated with the mountains which surround her home among the pine-woods of Sinaia (Prahova County, Romania); others belong to the districts traversed by the Pelesch (Peleș) river (a tributary of the Prahova River), the merry stream that dashes through the ravine at the foot of her garden, “whispering all sorts of wonders and secrets to those who have ears to hear.”
The remaining tales in the volume are collected from different parts of Germany. “The Little Glass-man,” is a legend of the Black Forest, the other stories are all compiled from, or founded upon, legends to be met with in various German collections.

So, we invite you to download and read these weird tales from Central and Eastern Europe. Tales which will entertain you for hours.
10% of the net income from the sale of this book will be donated to charities.
