Description: From Wikipedia:The King of the Golden River or The Black Brothers: A Legend of Stiria is a fantasy story originally written in 1841 by John Ruskin for the twelve-year-old Effie (Euphemia) Gray, whom Ruskin later married.] It was published in book form in 1851, and became an early Victorian classic which sold out three editions.
