Excerpt from Filipino Popular Tales: Collected and Edited, With Comparative NotesA word might be added as to the nature of the tales. I have included only hero tales, serious and droll, beast stories and fables, and pourquoi or just-so stories. Myths, legends, and fairy-tales (including all kinds of spirit and demon stories) I have purposely excluded, in order to keep the size of the volume within reasonable limits. I have, however, occasionally drawn upon my manuscript collection of these types to illustrate a native superstition or custom.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
