Wales is a land haunted by its own past, with a treasure trove of
beautiful and magical places - some rarely visited. Chris Barber guides
explorers to prehistoric megaliths, remote stone circles, burial
chambers, secret caves, lonely lakes and 'bottomless' pools. Many sites
in Wales are associated with King Arthur, Merlin and other remarkable
magicians, the Devil, fairies and water nymphs. Linked with the Golden
Age of Celtic Saints are primitive churches, ancient crosses, inscribed
memorial stones, island sanctuaries and holy wells, which all have
romantic legends adding to their mystery. With the help of his own
illuminating photographs and illustrations, Chris Barber unlocks the
ancient past, and evokes the wealth of tradition that makes Wales such
an enchanting country to visit and explore.
