This eBook edition has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Many volumes have been written setting forth the patriotism and heroism of the fathers of the Republic, but the devotion of the mothers and daughters has received far less attention. This book is designed, therefore, to portray in some degree their influence in the struggle of the Colonies to attain their independence. The narration of events takes the form of a story—a slight thread of romance being employed, rather than didactic narrative, to more vividly picture the scenes and the parts performed by the actors in the great historic drama. It will not be difficult for the reader to discern between the facts of history and the imaginative parts of the story.

The THIRD BOOK OF DRAGONS is the third installment following in the footsteps of Edith Nesbit’s “The Book of Dragon’s” and John Halsted’s compilation “The Second book of Dragons”. Here, John Halsted, author and folklorist, has compiled “The Third Book of Dragons” from numerous sources. In this book you will find 12 illustrated tales of dragons and serpents drawn from the mists of time. Some are friendly dragons which provide wisdom and direction to the heroes of our stories. Others are downright wicked, oozing malice and evil, leaving the hero of the story no option but to destroy the spiteful, fire-breathing, beast. Our heroes always sally forth wilfully, but cautiously, engaging these ancient creatures to save a damsel in distress, or their families, from sure destruction and banishment to oblivion. Herein you will find the stories of: Orestes And The Dragon The Three Princes, The Three Dragons, & The Old Woman With The Iron Nose The Dragon's Teeth The Hunting Princes The Student Who Was Forcibly Made King Vitazko The Victorious The Three Princes Batcha And The Dragon Shepherd Paul The Dragon-Giant And His Stone-Steed The Semi-Sentimental Dragon The Dragon Of Wantley These tales have been drawn from old and forgotten books often with their original illustrations. We invite you to download this book and sit back and enjoy a romp through the middle-ages and medieval times when people really did believe in Dragons which could fly and breathe fire. ============== KEWORDS/TAGS: folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, children's stories, bedtime stories, children’s stories, tales, tails, fables, compilation, dragons tales, boys, dragons and serpents, stories as old as time, wisdom, direction, malevolent, wicked, oozing, evil, malice, hero, knight in shining armor, saving, damsel in distress, prince, princess, banish, oblivion, tyranny, dictator, 12 dragon stories, Orestes, Three Princes, Three Dragons, Old Woman, Iron Nose, Dragon's Teeth, Hunting Princes, Student, Forced, King, Queen, Princess, Vitazko The Victorious, Batcha, Shepherd Paul, Dragon-Giant, Stone-Steed, Semi-Sentimental, Dragon Of Wantley, children’s book, fire breathing
