Abstract
-
en_US
Here is a genuine curiosity! This book brings together Welsh legends and trains. It has nothing to do with fables. I will keep it in the collection to stop me or another from ordering it again, even though the book is charming and the price was right. The book mixes illustrations black and white and colored with tales and poems. It also mixes trains with wizards, mermaids, and dragons. Even Shakespeare shows up pictured with a train. The anachronisms are delightful! An enchanting last illustration shows some right of way that has long been unused and leads off into the distance; it accompanies an Envoi poem that asks repeatedly What was that? and answers Nothing. The poem speaks wistfully of a long gone train.
