Rowan Ellway is a young college president; Easter Blue, an impassioned student leader. Upon graduation, she takes a fellowship to Africa, and they lose touch. When, decades later, they meet again, they discover that their prior bond was but a rehearsal for the world stage.THE ROWAN TREE reaches from the tumultuous 1960s into humanity's future, encompassing the worlds of politics, sport, ballet, presidential leadership, and world governance. An international cast of characters personifies the catalytic role of love in political change.Replete with illicit loves, quixotic quests, and inextinguishable hope, THE ROWAN TREE foretells a dignitarian world much as the story of King Arthur and the round table sowed the seeds of democracy.
Mythical Ireland embodies the search for a soul among Ireland's ancient ruins, and is an attempt to retrieve something of deeper import from 5,000-year-old megalithic monuments and their associated myths. The book represents a fascinating and engaging journey through time, landscape and the human spirit. Dealing with archaeology, interpretive mythography, cosmology and cosmogony, the book attempts to grapple with a core meaning, something beyond the functional interpretations of academia. In this revised and expanded edition, Anthony Murphy delves further into the many enthralling aspects of this journey. Just how much knowledge did locals have of the secrets of Newgrange before it was excavated? Who is the Cailleach, the ancient hag goddess whose image is ubiquitous in the ancient landscape? What happened to make Ireland's Stonehenge disappear from the landscape? Who were the first kings of Tara? What were the indigenous Irish myths about the Milky Way? Did someone try to steal the Tara Brooch? Why are there myths in Ireland about flooded towns and cities? Lavishly illustrated with exquisite photographs of the Irish landscape and ancient monuments, Mythical Ireland represents a personal and yet universal journey, a quest to reimagine the shrines as empowering and transformative sacred places. Murphy invokes the druids and poets of the Boyne and thus the sídhe of the ancient texts are reawakened for a modern and turbulent world.
The second Toby and Sox adventure in the trilogy.The excitement builds as the adventure continues. Toby’s father, Edward, takes Toby and the young dragon Sox to Stonehenge and the famous Vale of the White Horse, both important landmarks in dragon history. Edward explains the real story behind these World Heritage sites which are visited by thousands of children every year. Immersing children in the days when dragons lived peacefully with man, they learn how lions and unicorns fought their last great battle on the grassy hills leaving the legacy of the unicorn clearly visible for future generations to see and visit, and why dragons and unicorns now have to live in a secret world.The Rowan Tree gathers pace as a new super hero is introduced; the self-named ‘Monty Action Mouse’, a lovable character that epitomises Paula’s exceptional talent for characterisation. With the heroes facing new challenges in every chapter as they fight to save their friends, children will not want to put the book down. They come to learn that the events of the past can have drastic effects on the future, a future told in The White Dragon, the upcoming third novel in the series.
