The children story in this book is 100 years old being published in 1906 and is now in the public domain. It was written by ENYS TREGARTHEN Edited by: Rogil @ www.vintagebookshop.co.uk Suitable for children from 4 to 10 years old. The scene of this story is laid amid the ancient walls and gateways of Grim Dundagel thrond along the sea, especially Dozmare Pool, where Tregeagles unhappy spirit worked at his hopeless task of emptying the pool with a crozan or limpet shell that had a hole in it. On the golden spaces of St. Minver sand hills the legends about this unearthly personage are not so easily realized, except on a dark winters night, when the wind rages fiercely over the dunes and one hears a fearful sound, which the natives say is Tregeagle roaring because the sand ropes that he made to bind his trusses of sand are all broken. St. Minver is not only known for its connection with the legend of Tregeagle, but it is one of the many parishes beloved by the Small People or Fairy Folk with whom Enys Tregarthens little book has mostly to do. Piskeys danced in their rings. Night riders, used to steal horses from farmers stables and ride them over the moors and commons till daybreak, when they left them to perish, or to find their way back to their stalls. This story will amaze and delight our young readers. I have left the story in its original version, it is as topical today as it was then, but I have edited a lot of the old style words to make them look and sound modern. I have added some new illustration to make it a much more pleasant experience to the reader
