Feasts and festivals

Do you know on which night of the year the Wild Hunt rushes through the forests? Or how to secure a good crop of apples? Or when the Horn dance is performed? Or when and why children build grottoes of oyster shells? These questions and many others are answered in this book. Jenny Rhodes' exquisite full colour illustrations of traditional British customs follow a calender of the year's seasons, each with its flowers and fruit, and each custom set in a different period of history
