Old Testament Legends

Old Testament Legends: Being stories out of some of the less-known apocryphal books of the Old Testament is a classic bible stories for young people collection by M. R. James. If you read the title-page of this book--a thing which young persons very seldom do--you will see that it (the book) contains stories taken "out of some of the less-known apocryphal books of the Old Testament." You will very possibly not understand what that means; but if you will read this preface--another thing which young persons do even seldomer than they read a title-page--you will find the best explanation that I can give.
