Seller's Description:
Used: Acceptable. Hardback with D/J in good condition. 1998 Brockhampton Press. A collection of nine stories from the 1910 edition of M. I. Ebbutt's famous work-Hero-Myth and Legends of the British Race. This newly edited edition of the above title sets out to give an account of the many cultural elements that had gone into the making of the mythology of Britain: Celts, Romans, Saxons, Danes, and Normans-all had influenced the development of the century's racial character, and hence its myths. Ebbutt's original sclection contained several more tales, some of which are either less interesting to modern readers or are so readily available as to make their inclusion here unnecessary. In selecting the nine tales which make up this edition John Matthews has tried to choose the best and more representative of the subject-those 'hero myth and legends' which reflect the varying natures of peoples who gave them life. Edited and introduced by John Matthews with new illustrations by Peter Komarnyckyj. -used books, secondhand books, out of print books, hard to find books, for sale, second-hand books, college books, student books, nonfiction, first edition, signed copies, non-fiction books delivered world wide.
