Description
Historian and folklorist Bob Curran looks at the origins of this hero of Irish lore - the Leprechaun - fallen angel, diminished god or son of fairies - and at his habits, occupations and characteristics. He explores the superstitions surrounding the leprechaun and his enduring place in popular culture, and turns the spotlight on the `real' leprechaun - mysterious, complex, and contradictory.
