Serbian Folk-Lore

Hard to find in print, this charming replica edition of a rare 1874 work brings together some familiar―and some esoteric―tales of European folklore as filtered through the culture of Serbia, Bosnia, and Croatia. Selected and translated into English by ELODIE LAWTON MIJATOVIC (1825–1908), the stories featured include: • "The Bear's Son" • "The Snake's Gift" • "The Golden-Fleeced Ram" • "Who Asks Little, Gets Much" • "The Wise Girl" • "Good Deeds Are Never Lost" • "The Wicked Stepmother" • "The Shepherd and the King's Daughter" • "One Good Turn Deserves Another" • "The Golden-Haired Twins" • and others.
