Description
Bogie Tales of East Anglia by M. H. James is a rare and fascinating book on the supernatural folklore of Norfolk and Suffolk. First published in 1891, it was the first book devoted to the folklore of East Anglia, but it has since become a lost classic. This critical edition, with an introduction and detailed notes, brings the book back into print for the first time. The book features a range of terrifying tales, including witchcraft, ghosts, charms, traditional cures, and legendary stories of supernatural creatures. One of the most famous of these is the legend of Black Shuck, a demon dog said to roam the countryside. This edition provides a unique insight into the folklore of the Waveney Valley and Suffolk coast in the late 19th century. With its introduction and detailed notes, this edition makes the book an important resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of East Anglia.
