Title: Tales of the Enchanted Islands of the Atlantic
Author: Thomas Wentworth Higginson
Narrator: LibriVox Volunteers
Length: 4 hrs 46 mins
Language: English
Release date: 1/1/2017
Publisher: LibriVox
Genres: Fiction & Literature, Historical Fiction, Action & Adventure, Fairy Tales & Folklore
Publisher's Summary:
The sea has always been, by the mystery of its horizon, the fury of its storms, and the variableness of the atmosphere above it, the foreordained land of romance. In all ages and with all sea-going races there has always been something especially fascinating about an island amid the ocean. It's very existence has for all explorers an air of magic. The order of the tales in the present work follows roughly the order of development, giving first the legends which kept near the European shore, and then those which, like St. Brandan's or Antillia, were assigned to the open sea or, like Norumbega or the Isle of Demons, to the very coast of America. Every tale in this book bears reference to some actual legend, followed more or less closely, and the authorities for each will be found carefully given in the appendix for such readers as may care to follow the subject further. (Summary by Arnieh)
