Summary

Once upon a time, most of Britain and Ireland was covered in woodland. Many of the trees have been cleared, but our connection with the wildwood remains. It is a place of danger, adventure and transformation, where anything could happen.

Here is a collection of traditional folk tales of oak, ash, and thorn; of hunting forests and rebellion, timber and triumph in battle, wild ghosts and woodwoses. Lisa Schneidau retells some of the old stories and relates them to the trees and forests in the landscape of our islands today.

Brilliant stories

Fascinating tales with an engaging teller of tales. Lisa Schneidau is a wise and witty story teller! Steeped in legend and folk lore, these stories feel connected to an ancient aural history. Wonderful.
