Illustrated Tales of Derbyshire

About this book

Author and historian David Paul brings us a selection of the strange and mythical tales from across Derbyshire, from the Peak District and its rural landscape to its towns and cities, and from ancient settlements and villages to places that grew up around mining and other industries. These strange and spooky stories are accompanied by the author's photographs of places featured in the text, both present day and historical, in this hugely entertaining book.
