Some have declared that India is the home of the fairy tale, and that all European fairy tales have been brought from thence by crusaders, Mongol missionaries, Gipsies, Jews, traders, and travellers. Jacobs has selected the best from the sub-continent from the Jatakas to the folk-tales of Kashmir. In this volume we find stories about Punchkin, the evil magician, the magic fiddle and more.
