To celebrate the timeless magic of the Summer Lands, this new, revised and updated edition of the collection incorporates many of the original tales with the addition of some new verses and illustrations, and a catalogue of prints. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTony Cottrell's verse is set in the semi-mythical realm of the Summer Lands to the far southwest of England. Cornwall is unique in being a clearly bounded land still steeped in legend. Here, the veil between the worlds is thin, and while the 'Summer Lands, ' may suggest for some the peaceful Otherworld of the Pagan afterlife, in the title of this book it refers to the mythological landscape itself as a living, creative source that fires and sustains its people. The Summer Lands was home to the Celtic bard who tapped this wellspring of creativity through story-telling. \u003cem\u003eTimeless Tales from the Summer Lands\u003c\/em\u003e celebrates this tradition through the verses of Tony Cottrell and the artwork of his brother Barry. This revised and updated edition of the original 1993 \u003cem\u003eTales from the Summer Lands\u003c\/em\u003e contains some additional verses and images along with detailed information about the linocut illustrations, enabling the book to serve as a catalogue for the prints.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Tony Cottrell\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1739920554\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781739920555\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Drivenline\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/04\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.21d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tony Cottrell","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44057612091647,"sku":"9781739920555","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_edf47deb-0b79-4525-b583-0635a638a71c.jpg?v=1685047961","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/timeless-tales-from-the-summer-tony-cottrell-9781739920555","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
