The Ingoldsby Legends full title: The Ingoldsby Legends, or Mirth and Marvels is a collection of myths, legends, ghost stories and poetry written supposedly by Thomas Ingoldsby of Tappington Manor, actually a pen-name of an English clergyman named Richard Harris Barham.

The Jackdaw of Rheims.

As a priest of the Chapel Royal , with a private income, [3] Barham was not troubled with strenuous duties and he had ample time to read and compose stories. Although based on real legends and mythology, chiefly Kentish, [4] such as the " hand of glory ", they are mostly deliberately humorous parodies or pastiches of medieval folklore and poetry.

The best-known poem of the collection is the "Jackdaw of Rheims", about a jackdaw , who steals a cardinal 's ring, and is made a saint. The village pub of Denton was renamed "The Jackdaw Inn" in , after the story. The collection also contains one of the earliest transcriptions of the song " A Franklyn's Dogge ", an early version of the modern children's song " Bingo ".

Text block lightly tanned, not paginated - profusely illustrated and in addition 22 most attractive full page sepia-tone prints and a beautiful colour illustration on page before title page. Artist is Lucius Rossi. This is a very special book, in very good condition, especially for age, and most collectiable.
