When Lion Could Fly - And Other Tales From Africa

This vintage 1986 volume features traditional Irish folklore retold by Neil Philip, but its true magic lies in the artwork. The book is entirely illustrated using the surviving hand-painted glass slides created by 1890s amateur naturalist Henry Underhill for his Victorian magic lantern shows. The narrative follows Guleesh, a quiet youth who gets swept up by fairies on an airborne journey to rescue a French princess.
