Description

Original maps and illustrations by Vivienne Shanley.

 Paul Broadhurst is one of Britain's most original authors exploring the mysteries of ancient landscapes. "Tintagel and the Arthurian Mythos" is the book that made many people realize that Tintagel, said to be the legendary place of the birth of King Arthur, was much more than simply a tourist hotspot connected with an elusive medieval myth.

 It explores the origins of the legend and Tintagel's unique position in Celtic lore as a centre of ritual kingship and looks at the links to other significant sites.
