Fairy Faith In Celtic Countries is a classic in-depth examination of the the Celtic belief in fairies. Evans-Wentz's Oxford work includes an extensive survey of the fairy traditions from multiple perspectives, including folk-lore, history, anthropology and psychology. At the center of the work is Evans-Wentz's extensive ethnographic fieldwork. This research provides an invaluable glimpse into the fairy belief system at the onset of modernity. The material covers detailed examinations of the fairy faith in Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Brittany and the Isle of Man.


Additionally Evans-Wentz examines the possible origins of the belief in fairies. Fairy Faith remains an important work on this fascinating phenomenon.
