Lang Books
Andrew Lang was a prolific Scots man of letters, whose legacy endures primarily through his extensive collections of folk and fairy tales. His fascination with folklore and history, sparked by the rugged landscapes of his youth, led him to preserve and share magical narratives for new generations. Lang not only revived declining interest in British fairy tales but also challenged contemporary views on their potential harm to children. His work, often accomplished in collaboration with his wife, revolutionized the perception of fairy tales and inspired parents to read them to their children.
