This booklet contains nine stories, eight previously unpublished, and one previously unreprinted. The three longer stories date from the last decade of Dunsany's life, while the rest are fables of the sort as those found in Fifty-One Tales (1915). Dunsany was a master fabulist, so it's a great attraction to see more of his work in this area.
This edition also has as a color frontispiece a previously unpublished work by S.H. Sime:
