Description: In an age of ecological turbulence, our understanding of the hills, rivers and fields we live amongst is more critical than ever. But what strange mysteries might the academic study of geography conceal from us, and what relationships to the land might be revealed by reinvestigating the forgotten knowledge of myth, history and legend? Here Michael Dames sets out to reconnect with the hallowed landscapes of Britain and Ireland, and finds them populated by ancient goddesses, strange rites and embedded energies.
