Old Hungarian Fairy Tales
Old Hungarian Fairy Tales was edited and translated from Hungarian by Baroness Orczy (creator of the famous Scarlet Pimpernel series) in 1895. Excerpt: "THERE lies before me, as I write, a quaint old book; from this little book—torn and soiled, its edges all gone—nearly all the stories in this volume are drawn. In their earliest childhood, Hungarian children hear the story of "Forget-me-Not" (Nfelejts), the history of the "Twin Hunchbacks" (A Ret Torpe), and the doings of the wicked Sultana in the "Magic Cat" (A Buvos Macska.) In my little book is the shell of these stories told simply and in few words. Who was the originator of them?"
