Andrew Lang
does any one know if there is a book with all of his fairy tales in it, or are all of them in separate books. I know of the rainbow fairy tale book, but it only has a few tales from each book.

On-line
I believe all of his stories are available on-line. If you are looking for a hard copy, however, I don't know of one.

Re: Andrew Lang (and a note on Quiller-Couch)
Leah and all,
All but one of the twelve of Lang's fairy books are online. The
most are available on Gutenberg.net, but Belinus.co.uk has three
that Gutenberg does not. Alas, everyone has neglected the Green
Fairy Book which has some wonderful tales in it. Gutenberg and Belinus
also happen to have the best online fairy tale book collections
while D. L. Ashliman has the best collection of tales sorted by
tale type.
Here is the list:
The Blue Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Brown Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Crimson Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Lilac Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Orange Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Red Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Violet Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Yellow Fairy Book on Gutenberg
promo.net/cgi-promo/pg/t9...gutenberg/
The Olive Fairy Book on Belinus
www.belinus.co.uk/fairyta...efairy.htm
The Grey Fairy Book on Belinus
www.belinus.co.uk/fairyta...yfairy.htm
The Pink Fairy Book on Belinus
www.belinus.co.uk/fairyta...kFairy.htm
Also, if you have never read Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch's retelling of Beauty and the Beast, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and Bluebeard, they are lovely and went with Edmund Dulac's illustrations. They are available online at Bartleby.com, another favorite text site, at:
www.bartleby.com/76/
The site includes some of Dulac's illustrations for these tales, but SurLaLune has them all. : )

Dover Books
Dover Publications ( <htt://www.doverpublications.com> ) carries the Andrew Lang fairy tale books. It has 12 of them (I don't know how many were published originally) including the Green Fairy Tale Book that someone mentioned, paperback, $8.95 each. I haven't purchased any of them yet though they are on my "to buy" list. I have bought many other things from Dover through the years and have always been happy with the products and the service. (Not affiliated, just a happy customer, etc.). If you don't want to buy on line, they have a free catalogue for mail order as well.
