Lamplight Tales

About this book

Storytelling is a universal language we all share, regardless of who we are, how old we are, or where we come from. Lamplight Tales is an original collection of the kind of tales that were passed on to me as a child, when family and friends gathered around oil lamps at night and entertained each other. Lamplight Tales sent chills crawling over our skin, but the flickering flames from the lamps held our fear at bay and kept the warmth of friendship, family, and fun in our hearts. Are these tales true? Some are as true as the gospel. And the others? I hope not, but I was certainly convinced that they could have happened! Lamplight Tales work just as well around campfires or in shadowy places on sunny days. Enjoy this unique part of our heritage, and let these stories inspire you to tell some tales of your own!
