STORYLAND: A NEW MYTHOLOGY OF BRITAIN (PB)

A new illustrated mythology of Britain, stretching from the Creation and Noah's Flood to the invasion of the Normans. Here are retellings of medieval tales of legend and landscape, with shadowy characters such as Brutus, Albina, Scota, Arthur and Bladud, embellished with stunning artworks and glossed with a rich and erudite commentary. From Wayland's Smithy to Orkney and Snowdon to the Thames, these myths of homeland, exile and migration, kinship, loyalty, betrayal, love and loss take place in a landscape brimming with wonder.
