About This Book

The term folklore, coined by W. J. Thoms of the Camden Society for an article in The Athenaeum in 1846, covers the study of legends, customs, beliefs and superstitions of the common people, whatever the stage of civilization reached. the preservation of legends is generally fortuitous, since they belong to an oral tradition.
