Description
The Coming of the Fairies - The Cottingley Incident In 1917, two young cousins, Elsie and Frances, took photographs that would capture the public's imagination for decades to come. The images, which appeared to show fairies, were discovered by writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, who was fascinated by the possibility of psychic phenomena. Doyle's enthusiasm for the photographs was not shared by everyone, and their authenticity was called into question. The controversy surrounding the photographs continued long after Doyle's death, with both Elsie and Frances eventually admitting that the images were faked. However, the fifth and final photograph, which showed a figure that could not be explained, remains a mystery. This book tells the story of the Cottingley Fairies, a phenomenon that continues to fascinate people to this day. Published in 2013, this edition of The Coming of the Fairies provides a unique insight into a fascinating and intriguing story.
