First sentence: MANY OF THE TALES in this book were told me by one Paddy Flynn, a little bright-eyed old man, who lived in a leaky and one-roomed cabin in the village of Ballisodare, which is, he was wont to say, 'the most gentle'-whereby he meant faery-'place in the whole of County Sligo.'
Description: Supernatural tales are based upon Irish folklore, incidents related to Yeats by witnesses, and Yeats' own experiences.
