The Washer of the Ford: Legendary moralities and barbaric tales by William Sharp is a collection of Celtic short stories about a far and mystical land with many fantastical creatures. Excerpt: “To you, in your far-away home in Provence, I send these tales out of the remote North you love so well, and so well understand. The same blood is in our veins, a deep current somewhere beneath the tide that sustains us. We have meeting places that none knows of; we understand what few can understand, and we share in common a strange and inexplicable heritage.”
