- Popular romances of the West of England : or the drolls, traditions and superstitions of Old Cornwall by Robert Hunt

- Legends and Folk-Lore of Devonshire. Illustrated by Cecily M. Rutley and writen by Mildred R. Lamb

or

- Devonshire: County Legend & Folk-Lore by Cecily M Rutley (may be the same book, but this one has a chapter entitled "Chagford Pixies"!)

- Tales of the Dartmoor Pixies Glimpses of Elfin Haunts by William Crossing

- Dartmoor Legends by Roberts Eva , C.

- Traditions, Legends, Superstitions, and Sketches of Devonshire by Anna Eliza Bray

or any other nice old books in a simmiller vein...

Also enjoying the music of Joanna Newsome!

If anyone feels like getting me any of these for Christmas I would be very happy indeed, espesially if they where old and battered and smelt nice...
