Serves its purpose of being an encyclopedia, but I was hoping for something a little easier to tie narratives, myths, etc. Which this book does not do for beginner students of the subject. ( ) All the beauty, magic and fascination of the Celtic world in a comprehensive, beautifully written guide. Goddesses, gods, mythical queens and kings, heroes and heroines, saints and otherworldly creatures. Customs, rituals, battles and legends written like a fairytale to spread the wealth of the Celtic culture of the British Isles, Brittany and the rest of the Celtic world. A jewel that should find a place in every bookcase. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
