About this book

The Coming of the Fairies is by Arthur Conan Doyle and is illustrated from photographs. The preface says the book contains reproductions of the famous Cottingley photographs, and gives the whole of the evidence in connection with them. The preface says the narrative is not a special plea but simply a collection of facts.

A letter from The Myrtles, Beckenham, dated June 21, 1920 and signed E. Blomfield, sends the two fairy pictures. The text says that, making no attempt this time to get in the picture themselves, Iris put the camera very close up and obtained the snap. A passage headed The Future says that what might follow an intelligent understanding of the little people, and the establishment of mutual good feeling, opens up a prospect alluring in the extreme.
