Legendary Fictions of the Irish Celts, Volume I: Folklore & Faith
Adapted from the works of Patrick Kennedy (1891) · A Druid’s Hound Inn Collector’s Edition · Adapted & Illustrated by Carol Motsinger

Step into the enchanted world of nineteenth-century Ireland, where faith and folklore walk hand in hand.
This beautifully illustrated collector’s edition gathers Patrick Kennedy’s classic tales of household spirits, fairy visitations, changelings, and the miraculous legends of Ireland’s Celtic saints.

Carol Motsinger’s adaptation preserves Kennedy’s wit and storytelling rhythm while making his language clear and accessible for modern readers.
From “The Good People” to the “Legends of the Saints,” these stories reveal the beliefs and imaginations of rural Ireland — a world alive with wonder, devotion, and the mysterious presence of the unseen.

Includes:

• Adapted text and glossary of Irish dialect and folklore terms
  
  

• “Notes & Commentary from Patrick Kennedy” for historical insight
  
  

• Original illustrations by Carol Motsinger
  
  

Volume I: Folklore & Faith opens The Druid’s Hound Inn series — a celebration of Celtic storytelling for readers who love myth, legend, and the charm of Ireland’s ancient fireside tales.
