| Summary | "Tales and Legends of the English Lakes" by Wilson Armistead is a collection of folk tales and narratives derived from the romantic and historical landscape of the Lake District, written in the late 19th century. The book intends to explore the beauty and enchantment of this scenic region, while also delving into its history and folklore, combining both legendary tales and the allure of the natural surroundings. The opening of the collection sets an evocative stage, highlighting the enchanting landscape of the Lake District and the rich cultural tapestry that surrounds it. Armistead reflects on the area's breathtaking beauty, its idyllic lakes and mountains, and the stories rooted in its history. He introduces the notion that while the Lake District may lack grand historical events, it is rich in myth and poetry, urging readers to appreciate both its natural magnificence and the legends that breathe life into its corners.
