While doing research for my book, I’ve come across some free downloads of out-of-copyright books on Google Books. Thought I’d share a few here!
- Gypsy Folk-Tales by Francis Hindes Groome
- The Gypsies by Charles Godfrey Leland
- Gypsy Sorcery and Fortune Telling by Charles Godfrey Leland
- Encyclopaedia of Superstition, Folklore and Occult Sciences by Cora Linn Morrison Daniels

Thank you so much for this information, must bookmark these!
Cordelia, If you have a Google gmail account (they are free to set up) you can add them right to your virtual "library" and have them on hand anywhere! You can also read them from multiple sources. I'm a huge fan of all of Googles online goodies! =)
Awesome find, MrsB!
I didn't know The Gypsies was out of print! My grandmother gave me her copy years ago! I have one more reason to appreciate it!
Thank you for the find Mrs. B!Just an fyi, your search terms were part of the book URLs you posted. Not sure if you realized that but I appreciate the glimpse into your search process.I am most curious about the basil search in the Gypsy Sorcery book.
Lol! Thanks, Terra, I didn't realize that! I don't really mind, though. As to why I'm searching for the things I'm searching for, it's research for the book I'm writing. =)
