Folk-Tales Of Andros Island, Bahamas

""Folk-Tales Of Andros Island, Bahamas"" is a collection of traditional stories and legends from the Caribbean island of Andros, as recorded by American anthropologist Elsie Clews Parsons in the early 20th century. The book contains over 50 tales, including myths, fables, and ghost stories, passed down through generations of Bahamian storytellers. The stories cover a range of themes and topics, from the creation of the world to encounters with supernatural beings, and offer insights into the cultural beliefs and values of the island's people. Parsons' detailed introduction provides historical and cultural context for the tales, and her notes and annotations offer further explanations and interpretations. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Caribbean folklore, anthropology, or cultural studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
