Now theyv got to blieve me.\" What young Angelica Cottington \"got\" was...a fairy. And, you are holding the evidence in your hands! It really happened--a hoax perpetrated by two girls who claimed to have photographed actual \"fairies\"; among the people caught up in the popular hysteria were Arthur Conan Doyle (who fell for it) and Harry Houdini (who did not). Now, this remarkable parody, written by a former member of the Monty Python troupe, takes a sly look at what happened in a fashion thats riotously witty, visually extraordinary, and wildly original. In every respect, this \"handwritten diary\" captures the look of the age--though the fairies, it is true, do sometimes have a more malevolent aspect than one might expect...A fresh--and funny--take on the true story that inspired two movies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Friedman","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44946006933557,"sku":"ByrdShop_1586633309","price":68.51,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781586633301_94a7cb72-91c6-4897-9a6b-e1d63a0cbc82.jpg?v=1778838074","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/lady-cottingtons-pressed-fairy-book-9781586633301","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
