In high summer meadows, nestled in the moors, near old castles, or
behind the kitchen stove--these are the places where the Little
People may be found. Make the acquaintance of White Ladies and Red
Caps, Church Grims and Hobgoblins, English Fairies, Leprechauns,
Sirens, Hey-Hey Men, and all of their strange and mythical kin.
Become wise in the ways of these magical creatures, some beautiful
and benevolent, others cunning, menacing, or morose. For many
years, this field guide has been as elusive as a Will-o'-the-Wisp.
This is the first opportunity for fans to once again own an
English-language edition of one of the most revered introductions
to elf folk ever written. Featuring more than 80 new illustrations
"Rationalists, materialists, be forewarned: the ancient forces
governing earthly incident and momentum lie neither in our heads
nor our economics, but, rather, in the revelations from A Field
Guide to the Little People." --The New York Times
