Beskrivelse

Dive into the enchanting world of the Ingoldsby Legends, a captivating collection of myths, ghost stories, and poetry attributed to the mysterious Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Manor, who is actually the pseudonym of Richard Harris Barham. First appearing in 1837 in Bentleys Miscellany and later in the New Monthly Magazine, these tales were beautifully illustrated by the talented John Leech and George Cruikshank. Their popularity soared during the Victorian era, leading to compilations in 1840, 1842, and 1847 by Richard Bentley, with an omnibus edition released in 1879 titled The Ingoldsby Legends; or Mirth and Marvels. Although their fame has waned, these timeless stories continue to delight and intrigue.
