This book was released on 2018-09-25 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THERE is at least one spot in the world where Fairies are still believed in, and where, if you look in the right places, they may still be found, and that is the little island from which these stories come Elian Vannin, or the Isle of Mann. But they are never called Fairies by the Manx, instead they are called the Little People. These Little People are not the tiny creatures with wings who flutter about in many European Fairy tales, but they are small persons from two to three feet in height, much like Ireland’s leprechauns – and why not? Ireland is but a ferry-ride away across the Irish Sea. Herein are 45 fairy and folk tales about the other-worldly, Little People of the Isle of Mann. The stories in this volume are: Themselves The Buggane Of Glen Meay Waterfall How The Manx Cat Lost Her Tail The Making Of Mann The Coming Of Saint Patrick How The Herring Became King Of The Sea The Silver Cup The Child Without A Name The Fairy Doctor Joe Moore’s Story Of Finn Maccooilley And The Buggane The Fynoderee – An Old Song The Fynoderee Of Gordon The Lhondoo And The Ushag-Reaisht Billy Beg, Tom Beg, And The Fairies The Lazy Wife The Mermaid Of Gob Ny Ooyl The Lost Wife Of Ballaleece Smereree Kebeg The Fairy Child Of Close Ny Lheiy The Little Footprints The Tall Man Of Ballacurry Ned Quayle’s Story Of The Fairy Pig Scene: A Village Kitterland Teeval, Princess Of The Ocean The Wizard’s Palace The Enchanted Isle Three Stories About Birds The Moddey Doo Or The Black Dog Of Peel Castle Little Red Bird Tehi Tegi John-Y-Chiarn’s Journey A Bad Wish The Witch Of Slieu Whallian The Old Christmas The Buggane Of St. Trinian’s King Magnus Barefoot Manannan Mac Y Leirr The Cormorant And The Bat Caillagh-Ny-Faashagh, Or The Prophet Wizard The City Under Sea An Ancient Charm Against The Fairies It is said the little people of Mann wear red caps and green jackets and are very fond of hunting indeed they are most often seen on horseback followed by packs of little hounds of all the colours of the rainbow. They are rather inclined to be mischievous, and sometimes spiteful, and that is why they are called by such good names, in case they should be listening! If you look hard enough, you may also find the Fynoderees and the Bugganeswho are totally different to the Little People.. So download this eBook and sit back with a steaming hot beverage and be prepared to be entertained for hours.

Book excerpt: Far away in the Irish sea lies the smallest island nation in the world, the Isle of Man, where the cats have no tails and the coat of arms has three legs.

Excerpt: ...of Ewan Christian of Milntown, one of the deemsters. He held the office of receiver, and the earl had such a high opinion of his trustworthiness, that he left him in command of the militia when he went to England. Soon after this a rumour reached the island that the Parliament had sent a force to capture it, and that the Countess of Derby, who was then ruling in the name of her husband, had arranged terms with the leader of this force. Christian consequently called a meeting of the people at his house of Ronaldsway, where eight hundred of them took an oath to oppose the countess till she had redressed their grievances, and it is probable that, at the same time, their leaders came to an agreement to anticipate the countess by themselves surrendering the island. The militia then proceeded to capture all the forts (except Rushen and Peel, which they failed to take), so that their leaders were able, on the arrival of the Parliamentary troops under Colonel Duckenfield, to surrender the island to him; and they did so, on condition that the Manx should enjoy their laws and liberties as formerly. A few days later the countess gave up Castle Rushen. The island was then, for a brief period, under the rule of the Parliament, which sent for William Christian and his brother, Deemster John Christian, described as " two of the ablest and honestest gentlemen in the island," to give the Council of State an account of the Manx laws. Thomas, Lord Fairfax, to whom the island had been presented by the Parliament, then took possession of it as its lord. Christian acted as governor under him for a year or two, and he continued to be receiver till Chaloner, who succeeded him as governor, deprived him of that office for reasons which have never been...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Story of the Isle of Man: An Historical Reader for the Manx Schools I have to thank the Rev. S. A. P. Kermode, M.A., and a Committee of Public Elementary School Teachers for many valuable suggestions. I have also to thank the Rev. F. F. Cornish, M.A. (Head Inspector of the N.W. district of England and Wales, of which the Isle of Man forms a part), who has read the MS. of this book, for the following kind remarks about it: - "I was very glad when I heard that you were going to write a short history of the Isle of Man for schools, and having read it, I think it is quite adapted for the use of our older scholars; for it gives a plain, pleasantly written and well rounded off account of the fortunes of your Island, beginning in the half-mythical past and ending in the realities and duties of the present. If this little book docs its work as a first step in local history, we may look forward to its leaving the readers with the desire to learn more upon the same subject. Thus they would naturally be led to Peveril of the Peak and see how Scott's glowing imagination has lighted up the connexion between the history of England and of Man in those stirring times.
