London, David Nutt, 1895. First edition, first impression. Hardback. A fine copy. Quite uncommon. Collects 30 short pieces, with a preface by the publisher and an introduction by the author. An important record of Irish culture. Curtin was an American folklorist who spent a lot of time in Ireland, particularly in Munster. His books were a source for Yeats' works. A little handling wear here and there, but in remarkable condition overall. [11358, Hyraxia Books].
