The Story of a Troll-Hunt

This rare classic fantasy was first issued in 1904 as a memorial tribute to the young author/artist James McBryde. It includes an introduction by his friend, M. R. James, providing the background for McBryde's story of three young men who take a vacation-expedition to Denmark to capture a live troll. McBryde's artistry is phenomenal, foreshadowing the loose humorous skill of Dr. Seuss. The original manuscript's whimsical drawings and illegible handwriting are now supplemented with a text translation.
