Storyland offers a rich tapestry of Britain’s earliest legends—from Creation and the giants to Arthur, Brutus, and the Norman Conquest. Amy Jeffs reimagines medieval tales with narrative flair, placing them within the landscapes that birthed them. Each myth is paired with her original linocut illustrations and erudite commentary, grounding fantastical narratives in real-world settings like Stonehenge, Tintagel, Snowdon, and the Thames. Reviews “Storyland is a joyous read celebrating the power of collective myths and the landscapes which inspired them.”— All About History “Jeffs writes beautifully… her linocut prints make for attractive illustrations. A gorgeous book that should live on the bookshelves in every house that cares about ‘the idea of Britain.’”— The Times “Ravishingly lovely.”— The Times Ireland “Rich in myth and legend… beautifully illustrated… an engaging, meticulously researched journey filled with drama, emotion, action and experience.”— Scottish Field Magazine
