The Lilac Fairy Book (Paperback)

This charming early work, first published in 1910, is the final book in a series of twelve coloured fairy books published by Andrew Lang between 1889 and 1910. Illustrated with 6 black and white plates and numerous illustrations by M. J. Ford, this book is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the shelf of all folklorists and lovers of fairy tales. A delightful read for both adult and child. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s 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.
