The Langs’ Colored Fairy Books Index

Posted on Updated on

The Fairy Books are 25 volumes of collected fairy tale stories from around the world, translated and compiled by Leonora Blanche Lang and edited by her husband, Andrew Lang, in the late 1800s to early 1910s. You can read more about the history of the books and their creation on Wikipedia!

This post is specifically an index for the books in the “Colored Fairy Books” collection, which is 12 volumes.

I’ve also put together an index of the contents of each of the Colored Fairy Books, so you can CTRL-F to find a specific story and see which volume it’s in. The book list is in published order, while the contents index is listed alphabetically.

If you’d like, there’s a printable PDF version of the story index available at my shop here.
