Legends and Tales

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. These stories were written many years ago, and had a wide circulation in their original form. They are old-world tales re-told for modern children, and breathe the spirit which inspires to heroic action. The modern world has need of the self-sacrifice of Gangs, of the courage of Perseus, and its Helpers of to-morrow are among the young of to-day. Annie besant.
