"The Story of a Troll Hunt" by James McBryde is a whimsical and humorous tale that follows a group of English gentlemen on an absurd expedition to hunt mythical trolls, inspired by Scandinavian folklore. The narrative is filled with humorous mishaps and fantastical encounters, highlighting the eccentricity of the characters and the absurdity of their quest. McBryde, an illustrator and friend of ghost story writer M.R. James, brought the story to life with his charming and whimsical illustrations. Published posthumously in 1904, the book showcases McBryde's talent and imagination, making it a delightful read for both children and adults. Despite his brief career, McBryde's work, preserved by the efforts of his friend M.R. James, remains a testament to his creative legacy and the collaborative spirit between the two friends.
