Review of 'The White Stag' on 'Goodreads'

(read over a few nights this past winter, from a older, nicely illustrated hard cover) ... Memorable story, neatly told. Bits and pieces seemed vaguely familiar. Count it among the many pieces of folklore that deserve to be more widely known & reflected upon. Greek & Roman, Norse, & Celtic get almost all the attention at least in the English-speaking, Western popular culture.

It's showing up as read two times because I don't know how to edit the date read from read with no date to a guess of when I read it, but I've only read it once so far. Will reread though, I'm sure.
