The Hidden Servants and Other Very Old Stories is a book written by Francesca Alexander that contains a collection of ancient stories from various cultures around the world. These stories have been passed down through generations and have been carefully selected and retold by the author. The book is divided into three parts, each containing stories from a different region of the world. The first part features stories from Europe, including tales from Greece, Ireland, and Italy. The second part contains stories from Asia, including tales from India, China, and Japan. The third and final part features stories from Africa, including tales from Egypt, Ethiopia, and Nigeria.The stories in this book are not your typical fairy tales. They are ancient myths and legends that often contain deeper meanings and lessons about life. Some of the stories are about gods and goddesses, while others are about ordinary people and their struggles. The book is beautifully illustrated with black and white drawings that capture the essence of each story. The author also provides helpful notes at the end of each story, explaining its origins and meaning. Overall, The Hidden Servants and Other Very Old Stories is a fascinating collection of ancient tales that will appeal to readers of all ages who are interested in mythology, folklore, and the history of different cultures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
