The Folklore of Western Australia

RESOURCES -

In compiling these stories I have not listed the sources individually on each page as I feel that would detract from the overall look and feel of the website.

This isn't an academic study of our folklore in any case and it is meant to be a fun place to enjoy without being stuffy and filled with quotes and formal references.

For those who are interested in finding out more, I have provided a list of the books I have read (so far) in obtaining all this information.

If nothing else, it should give you some idea of just how much work has gone into putting this together.
