In 1917, two English cousins convince the world that they have photographs of actual fairies. - HARPERCOLL
The true story of British cousins who fooled the world for more than 60 years with a remarkable hoax, photographs of ârealâ fairies. Exquisitely illustrated with art by Eliza Wheeler as well as the original photos taken by the girls.
In 1917, in Cottingley, England, a girl named Elsie took a picture of her younger cousin, Frances. Also in the photo was a group of fairies, fairies that the girls insisted were real. Through a remarkable set of circumstances, that photograph and the ones that followed came to be widely believed as evidence of real fairies. It was not until 1983 that the girls, then late in life, confessed that the Cottingley Fairies were a hoax. Their take is an extraordinary slice of history, from a time when anything in a photograph was assumed to be fact and it was possible to trick an eager public into believing something magical.
