King Arthur's footsteps   Paul White

978-1-899383-52-8       £2.99   Order info

If King Arthur was a real historical figure, he almost certainly lived in Dumnonia, the post-Roman kingdom which included Cornwall, Devon and part of Somerset. Here Paul White explores places across the south west traditionally associated with Arthur and recommends those most likely to provide an enjoyable visit.

The Life of Merlin by Geoffrey of Monmouth
(translated by Paul White)

A very accessible modern translation of a 12th century Latin poem which gives a fascinating insight into a Merlin more associated with madness and the gift of prophecy than with magic and wizardry.
