Inhaltsangabe

In Reek Roon a Camp Fire, Stanley Robertson takes the reader on a journey of wonder with a collection of authentic Traveller tales—from fairy folks to supernatural happenings and tales of everyday life—designed to initiate the non-traveller populace into the wonderful events and secret happenings that are an elementary part of the lore of the Travelling People. In this magnificent collection of epic tales, Stanley Robertson not only encapsulates the complexities of everyday life of the travelling people, drawing the narrative through the lives of a multitude of characters, but also explores various storytelling styles, moods, customs and beliefs with the richness of the ancient languages used by the Travelling communities. This is a magnificent addition to the canon of traveller tales, and one that should be treasured by lovers of myths, tales and legends the world over.
