A journey to 30 locations of high mythological and historical significance in southern England and Wales
➤ A textbook which lures us to magical locations
➤ Historical knowledge paired with metaphysical experiences
➤ Detailed descriptions of journeys that give the book travel guide qualities
Through many journeys, writer and author Manfred Böckl has researched thirty very special locations in southern England and Wales: places with a strong magical aura, which often also possess high mythological or historical significance. Some of the places, like Stonehenge, the Avebury circles, or Glastonbury (Avalon), are well known worldwide – but for most of the other locations one can say, that they are genuine secrets. For example, the author takes the reader to the historic battlefield of Canlann, where Arthur and Mordred died, and in another chapter, he visits a wellpreserved Celtic town. His magical-historical journey of exploration takes us to megalithic graves, ruins redolent with legends, and a hill fort which was the real Camelot – and these are by no means all of the fascinating places Manfred Böckl has discovered for us. The author has written his book with a profusion of great historical and mythical background knowledge; often he allows personal and metaphysical experiences to stream into it – right through to memories of former lives. This profusely illustrated volume also still provides travel-guide quality information thanks to relevant factual knowledge, making the book able to serve as a totally perfect “guide” in a Britain that is full of magic.
