The valley of myth and pwer ....where magic made a woman out of flowers, where a doomed warrior won vengeance from beyond the grave, where the power of sorcery built and built and sought release. Then Alison found plates with owl patterns that vanished; Roger felt screams near an ancient stone, and Gwyn touched the force of a tragic Celtic legend -- unknowing, they broke the seals that bound the sorcery. Mythic forces, of love and damnation, lived again. The magic was loose... Book
Four stories which span several generations of craftsmen, telling Alan Garner's personal and family history as fiction. While simply told, each book is a marvellous skein of language, telling of the labourers and artisans, the cycle of the seasons, and the continuity inherent in all these. A child is central to each story - Mary sees eternal truths written in stone, William gets a new sledge crafted from wood and iron, Joseph becomes a blacksmith and Robert's name is carved in a steeple" 224p. Book
Stewart Allman wanted William's sledge, so he "Tom Fobbled" it for himself. Everyone knew that only marbles could be Tom Fobbled, but Stewart Allman made up his own rules for games. William's grandfather was a smith, and he built another sledge. It was strong and fast, made from an old oak loom. This is the first version of one of the stories that later became part of the "Stone Book Quartet" 72p. illus. Book

pp. [8], 9-283. "This strangely fascinating book divides itself into two parts: first, the autobiography and travelogue of a young girl [the daughter of a WWI German spy] who spent her childhood on the South Sea island of Nuifuti and travelled widely; and the second, a searching, personal study of the German Nazis and the Hitler regime. Miss Carl was sixteen and attending school in Munich when the Nazis came in power. She witnessed the brutal persecution of Jews and Communists. Disillusioned with the country and her work, she was only too glad to leave at the end of the school term." - dust jacket. Small patch of beige tanning atop pages 62-63 from a newsprint bookmark, otherwise pleasingly clean and tight with light wear to publisher's decorated wheat-coloured cloth. Average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A high-quality copy of this valuable account of "the influence of nationalism as mobilized by Hitler on impressionable youngsters, and the widespread resentment in Germany toward the Treaty of Versailles." - Madden p.103.
