The Ingoldsby legends by Thomas Ingoldsby por R. H. Barham

Important to notice that Thomas Ingoldsby is NOT the author. He is a character in the book which was published under his name, the author concealing his own identity.

The Ingoldsby Legends; or Mirth and Marvels, Volume I por Richard Harris Barham

These are delightful tales from England of life in and about an estate having to do with the "Ingoldsby" family. Fun and humorous tales, but at the base of them is a solid classical education.
