| Summary |
These Somerset tales, newly collected or retold with an eye and an ear to the land and waters that shaped them, reflect our growing interest in the natural landscape. Let these stories from the Summer Lands take you on a journey: across wind-wild moors that plummet to treacherous tides; on a scramble from gorge to cave, discovering ancient mines and dragons’ haunts; to emerge into forest and field, and stroll beside ancient waterways where willows walk and orchards talk. Your traveling companions will meet you from legend, from history, from living memory—from the places where they were once known best. They will guide you through the wonders and curiosities that make Somerset such a special place. Their stories, strange or faintly familiar, will beckon you to explore this extraordinary landscape or to look on it again with new eyes. |
