Bag om The Russian Story Book

The Russian Story Book, published in 1916, is a collection of folk tales and legends from ancient Russian sources. The book contains stories from the song cycles of Kiev and Novgorod, as well as other early sources. The tales are retold by Richard Wilson, who has gathered them from various sources and translated them into English. The stories range from tales of magic and enchantment to stories of bravery and heroism. Many of the tales feature supernatural creatures such as witches, giants, and dragons, and are set against the backdrop of a mystical, medieval Russia. The book provides a fascinating insight into the rich cultural heritage of Russia and its folklore, and is a must-read for anyone interested in Russian history and culture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
