Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Around the Fire When the night is black about the campfire, and the flames die down, and the half-burned embers fall into the ashes, we look into the red chamber of romance and see the flickering shapes of the men of long ago. The silence deepens and the world of today is swallowed up by that of a yesterday older than history. The blood of Angle, Saxon and Jute, Kelt and Slav, sings in our brains. Something touches our eyes with a magic wand and we see at the heart of the fire pictures of the World when man was young. The backlog becomes a ruddy screen upon which pass and repass the heroes who won a world for us by their courage and skill. These tales go with the moving pictures of the backlog. There are more where these came from, and the lover of the open fire can read them for himself. The world of these pictures was young. Everything had to be learned - everything had to be won. But there were giants in those days and the Revealer held the guiding torch. Slowly but surely they won mastery over harsh nature, savage beasts, and even more savage men, but greatest of all, mastery over self.
