""The True Legend of St. Dunstan and the Devil"" is a book written by Edward G. Flight in 1871. The book tells the story of St. Dunstan, an English saint who was known for his skill as a blacksmith and his ability to ward off evil spirits. The legend goes that one day, the devil came to Dunstan's forge and asked him to shoe his horse. In a clever move, Dunstan nailed the devil's foot to the floor and only agreed to release him if he promised never to enter any place where a horseshoe was hung over the door. This is how the horseshoe became a charm against witchcraft. The book is a retelling of this famous legend and also includes illustrations of the story. It is a fascinating read for anyone interested in folklore, mythology, or the history of England.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
