Publisher's Synopsis
Arthur Rackham has been called The Beloved Enchanter, and spellbound we become as we venture into his world of menacing forests and their horrifying denizens.  It is a world of evil gnomes, brutish giants, ponderous dragons and comic but naughty dwarves.  Nature herself assumes a sinister personality, trees threaten and shadows conceal.  In this stark world one is not likely to find the smooth-skinned, roseate or plump.  Yet trespass they do, the barefooted woodlanders,  beautiful princesses and gallant young knights.  And although they are ill at ease, their finery and delicacy mocked, their lives in peril, they still emerge triumphant and sometimes wiser from this land of faery.
