The Banbury Cross Series was a collection of 12 volumes of books
edited by Grace Rhys and published in London by Dent in the 1890s.
Each book is attractively illustrated with full page and partial
page pen and ink drawings in a classic Art Nouveau style by leading
artists of the era. The legendary figure of East Anglian folklore,
Tom Hickathrift, appears next to the curious tale 'The Fairy Gifts'
in this volume of the series. Accompanied by H. Granville Fell's
neat black and white illustrations. Many of the earliest children's
books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are
now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are
working to republish these classic works in affordable, high
quality editions, using the original text and artwork so these
works can delight another generation of children.
