Excerpt from Widecombe Fair A Modest comedy of Dartmoor, planned more than twenty years ago, is now finished, and it may be permitted to address those few fellow-artists and amateurs who have honoured me with their interest to the end. They are invited to judge the work as a whole and from no fragment; they are asked to consider it as a frieze, carved largely and roughly, whereon victors, vanquished, and spectators of the ceaseless struggle play their parts in the great hypaethral theatre of the Western Moors. The workmanship is archaic, yet I venture to claim form and an economy of means so austere that the difficulties have often conquered me. But in the temples of art every servant shall find his or her place; and while the greatest alone can fill the niche, wreathe the column, and adorn the holy of holies, the least may bring something to make fair each nook and corner, may add a minor fresco, or piece of patient carving, that shall not shrink from the sunbeam. The purpose of this attempt can be set down in a phrase. I have tried "to say 'yea' to life, even in its most difficult problems, and to display a will to life rejoicing at its own vitality in the sacrifice of its highest types." Doubtless many a young writer, blessed with courage, imagination, and a soul unshadowed by superstition, has, consciously or unconsciously, despised the line of least resistence and done likewise. But the way is steep; it leads swiftly up to tragedy and the fearless acceptation of things as they are. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

It is Devon's best-known folk song, but the ghost of Tom Pearse's old grey mare still leads historians on a never ending merry-go-round ride. The poor put-upon beast supposedly expired after carrying Uncle Tom Cobley and his band of fair-goers to Widecombe, but more than a century on mystery still surrounds the tragic journey across Dartmoor. Did it really happen, or is it all just a myth? According to a new book, there are still many unanswered questions surrounding the song. But the characters mentioned in it did exist - and they all came from mid-Devon. After more than two years of delving into the history of the famous fair, the Widecombe and District Local History Group concludes that its story, as with all legends and folklore, has elements of truth.
