<p><b>A collection of magic songs, spells, and charms in one of the largest published volumes of traditional Finnish folk music.</b></p>
<p>First collected and published by Elias Lӧnnrot in 1880 and later translated into English by John Abercromby and republished in 1896, <i>Magic Songs of the Finns</i> is a beautiful volume of forgotten wonder. Over 600 spells and charms from rural Finland are collected in this book to assist its reader in capturing the sound and passion of a very special culture. These songs were traditionally sung to ask for help from the spirits that the Finnish believed possessed all objects.</p>
