Mabinogion. A New Translation from the White Book of Rhydderch and the Red Book of Hergest... with illustrations by Dorothea Braby.

Bookseller Notes

A magnificent production, immediately hailed by Welsh scholars, book design critics and the general reading public alike as a great success, Braby's intricate, mysterious illustrations, re-produced from photographic blocks made from the original scraper-board designs, perfectly mirroring the tone of the text. [With:] From Reviews of two recent Golden Cockerel Press books: The Mabinogion; Endymion, [1949], pp. [ii], broadsheet with John Buckland-Wright cockerel engraving, "'Merely to look at this sumptuous book, outside or within, in these exigent times brings the delightful surprise that the sudden blossoming of a rosebush would give in the chilling days of December... flowers of refinement and enchantment amidst the nettles of barbarism.'
