  Gleaned from centuries of Irish writings on the elusive and solitary creature, here is the true story of the leprechaun. Examine the daily life of the leprechaun in lore and legend, and witness several leprechaun relics on view in contemporary Ireland, including the famous fairy shoe. Stories by Douglas Hyde, Thomas Crofton Croker, Seamus O'Kelley, Joseph Jacob, James Stephens, and Lord Dunsany round out the all-encompassing portrait.
