Original Near Fine 1904 Irish Mythological Novel that Rather Brilliantly Weaves King Arthur, Cornish Tintagel Sir Tristram and Cuchulain and Little Britain, (Brittany) The story is woven well and a long educated introduction explains his process. 240 pp. Four full page B/W by Paul Brady Near Fine Except for the seemingly unavoidable foxing, a charming 1904 Medieval illuminated book plate Prize the book is rarely ever seen in this great condition. Cover illus of Sir Tristram brisk,, NO writing, NOT a library copy. A easily overlooked Arthurian novel, based on Tristan and Isolt and it is equally a irish mythology novel with Cuchulain. Great stuff great shape, pictures soon. Three Geese In Flight bringing the roots of J.R.R Tolkien since 1977
