Abrams in New York in 1978, this large-format compendium draws from the fairy folklore of the British Isles and wider European tradition, presenting its subject as genuine ethnography rather than children's fantasy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the book that defined a generation's visual understanding of fairy lore, approaching the material with the earnestness of field documentation, and its influence on subsequent fantasy illustration, from Tolkien adaptations to dozens of artists who followed Froud and Lee, is difficult to overstate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCream cloth hardcover with a gilt fairy figure on the front board; no dust jacket present; light corner wear at the spine base.
