Water Spirits opens with the story of man who saved the life of a mermaid who promptly blessed him with the power to heal and to break witchcraft and cursed him so that every generation one man from his family would drown.
This was done to illustrate people's fear of the sea as a mysterious and fickle place that could from one moment give life and in the other death. Water was hailed as the source of life.
The Enchanted World series of books focus on different aspects of mythology, fairy tales or folklore.
Beautifully illustrated through out, this cloth covered book is inlaid and with gilt decoration and lettering, as per scan.
