Excerpt from The Banshee<br><br>IN a country, such is characterised by an arrestive and wildly beautiful scenery, it is not at all surprising to find something in the nature of a ghost harm'onising with the general atmos phore and surroundings, and that Something, apparently so natural to Ireland, is the Banshee.<br><br>The name Banshee seems to be a Contraction of the Irish Bean Sidhe, which is interpreted by some writers on the subject A Woman of the F aire Race, whilst by various other-writers it is said to signify The Lady of Death, The Woman of Sorrow, The Spirit of the Air, and The Woman of the Barrow.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
