Turkish Fairy Tales and Folktales is a collection of traditional stories from Turkey, compiled by R. Nisbet Bain. The book includes tales of magic, adventure, and romance, featuring heroes, villains, and mythical creatures. These stories have been passed down through generations and offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of Turkey. The book is divided into sections based on the type of story, such as animal tales, humorous tales, and love stories. The tales are accompanied by illustrations that bring the characters and settings to life. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in Turkish folklore and storytelling.1896. These stories were collected from the mouths of the Turkish peasantry by the Hungarian savant, Dr. Ignatius Kunos, during his travels through Anatolia. He compares the treasure of Turkish folklore to precious stones lying neglected in the byways of philology for want of gleaners to gather them in, and warns the student of ethnology that when the railroad actually invades the classic land of Anatolia, these poetical myths and legends will be the first victims of Western civilization.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
