Mythology of the British Isles

Beginning with the giant Albion, after whom the country was once named, Geoffrey Ashe explores the myths whose roots lie in the different British regions. Taking in fairy-folk, druids and King Lear, and the tales of Merlin and King Arthur that continue to hold sway in the nationâ€s imagination, he uncovers their sources and underlying ideas as well as their handling in tradition and literature.
