The Atlas of Legendary Lands by Judyth A Mcleod
"The Atlas of Legendary Lands captures a period when the world still held room enough for wonders to exist, and presents the alternative earth imagined by our not-too-distant ancestors. It was a world of imaginary lands with stunningly improbable inhabitants - a world sought, and sometimes found, by explorers as notable as Columbus. Highly illustrated, The Atlas of Legendary Lands reproduces many of the historical maps discussed in the text, maps filled with bizarre inaccuracies and imaginings. This larger format history title, with its eye-catching, embellished cover, will make the perfect gift for any history lover."
Dr Judyth A. McLeod has been a university lecturer in horticulture, landscape design, garden history, graphic art and sustainable architecture. She is co-owner of a nursery, Honeysuckle Cottage, which specialises in pre-twentieth century plants. Judyth is the author of a number of books on gardening and natural methods of healthcare, as well as the garden history title In A Unicorn's Garden: recreating the magic and mystery of medieval gardens (Murdoch Books, publishing April 2008).
