About the work
The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:
LibriVox recording of Folk-lore and Legends: Russian and Polish by Charles John Tibbits. Read in English by LibriVox Volunteers In this volume I present selections made from the Russian chap-book literature, and from the works of various Russian and Polish collectors of Folklore—Afanasief, Erben, Wojcicki, Glinski, etc. The chap-book tales, and many of those of Glinski, are, there is little doubt, of foreign origin, but since Russia and Poland are the countries in which these tales have found their home, and since they have there been so adapted by the people as to incorporate the national customs and lore, they appear to me to belong properly to the present volume. - Summary by Charles John Tibbets
