Published in 1978, this book explores sex, sex customs and relationships as they appear in folklore from a variety of cultures. The book is in excellent condition despite its age, with only minor wear on the back jacket. Spine is uncreased. From the jacket: In a wry, delightful yet thoroughly “proper” book, eminent folklorist Tristram Potter Coffin travels through time and across cultures examining the customs, fables, songs, poetry and more which people have invented to express their love and desire for each other.”
