In Liturgies of the Wild: Myths that make us, acclaimed mythographer Martin Shaw argues that modern society is impoverished by "myth-lite" narratives and cut off from the profound, ancient stories necessary for true spiritual maturity. He invites readers to rediscover the power of myth to heal and re-enchant the soul.

Myth . . . legend . . . or history so steeped in antiquity that we know it in our bones to be true? From Ur in the marshes of 16th-century B. C. Sumer to Troy in the Fenlands of England and the beginnings of London, Marchell Abrahams peels back the centuries to reveal the founding of our country by the Sumerian princess whom the British histories call Albyne. She takes us from the end of Roman kingship in Italy to the quelling of a savage civil war in 5th-century B. C. Britain by Brutus, descendant of King Leir, and his assumption, a thousand years after Albyne, of the High Kingship of an already ancient nation. This is British history.
