Summary
A collection of myths and legends includes such popular creatures of British folklore as dogs, swans, foxes, ravens, owls, and horses
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This is a survey of common animals, revealing their connections in myth, folklore and superstition. A commentary is provided for each creature in popular folklore, including the Fox-Man, the Dun-Cow, the Moon-Goddess and the Owl, and many more taken from Celtic and British folklore. The book claims that cows turn to the east and kneel as the clock strikes on Christmas Eve, that hares are witches or fairies in disguise and that their appearance in a dream is very prophetic, that Celtic families are descended from foxes and that foxes are a symbol of magic and enchantment.
