Summary

The THIRD BOOK OF DRAGONS is the third instalment following in the footsteps of Edith Nesbit’s “The Book of Dragon’s” and John Halsted’s compilation “The Second book of Dragons”. Here, John Halsted, author and folklorist, has compiled “The Third Book of Dragons” from numerous sources as before.

In this book you will find 12 illustrated tales of dragons and serpents drawn from the mists of time. Some are friendly dragons which provide wisdom and direction to the heroes of our stories. Others are downright wicked, oozing malice and evil, leaving the hero of the story no option but to destroy the spiteful, fire-breathing, beast. Our heroes always sally forth wilfully, but cautiously, engaging these ancient creatures to save a damsel in distress, or their families, from sure destruction and banishment to oblivion.

Herein you will find the stories of:
Orestes And The Dragon
The Three Princes, The Three Dragons, &  The Old  Woman With The Iron Nose
The Dragon's Teeth
The Hunting Princes
The Student Who Was Forcibly Made King
Vitazko The Victorious
The Three Princes
Batcha And The Dragon
Shepherd Paul
The Dragon-Giant And His Stone-Steed
The Semi-Sentimental Dragon
The Dragon Of Wantley

These tales have been drawn from old and forgotten books often with their original illustrations.

We invite you to download this book and sit back and enjoy a romp through the middle-ages and medieval times when people really did believe in Dragons which could fly.
