About the work

The LibriVox catalogue summary, preserved with the recording, reads:

LibriVox recording of More English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs. Read in English by Jeff Dumas; CJager; Roohi; Maria Kasper; Steve C; Lydia; Zames Curran; Daniel Nunan; Douglas Taylor; J. E. Vorble; Shakira Searle; Florence S. Thompson; Hamlet; Janaketch; Ray Kasper; Matt Butcher; Kathleen Costa "This volume will come, I fancy, as a surprise both to my brother folk-lorists and to the public in general. It might naturally have been thought that my former volume (English Fairy Tales) had almost exhausted the scanty remains of the traditional folk-tales of England. Yet I shall be much disappointed if the present collection is not found to surpass the former in interest and vivacity, while for the most part it goes over hitherto untrodden ground, the majority of the tales in this book have either never appeared before, or have never been brought between the same boards." - Summary from the preface
