Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

In Ireland, fairies have disappeared from general view, but there was once widespread belief in supernatural beings who could assume the shape of an animal but more often were never seen, and who were believed to have great powers (mostly good). These stories were collected in nineteenth-century Ireland and recorded as told to the author.

The stories in this book are taken from Patrick Kennedy's works, Legendary fictions of the Irish Celts; The fireside stories of Ireland and The banks of the Boro, published in Dublin between 1866-1870.
