Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Fine, fresh copy, Issued without dust jacket. Hardcover in blue-gray cloth stamped in black and gilt. Gray marker ribbon. With a preface by John Updike. xliii, two maps, 259 pp. with index of proper names. The eleven stories of The Mabinogion were assembled on paper in the 14th century but reach back much earlier into the oral traditions of Welsh storytelling. Mingling fantasy with tales of chivalry, they are closely linked to the Arthurian legends (Arthur himself appeared as a character) and summon up a world of mystery and magic that is still evoked by the Welsh landscape they so vividly describe.
