Dartmoor Idylls

"Dartmoor Idylls" by S. Baring-Gould is a captivating collection of tales set in the rugged, mist-shrouded moors of Devon. With a storyteller’s ear for dialect and a folklorist’s eye for detail, Baring-Gould brings the people and legends of Dartmoor to vivid life—shepherds, smugglers, wanderers, and wise women all find their voice in these pages. These are not just pastoral vignettes—they are echoes of a vanishing world, steeped in myth, humor, tragedy, and the haunting beauty of the moor.
"Dartmoor Idylls" is an unchanged, high-quality reprint of the original edition of 1896.
