Beschreibung
Featuring a silver-foil-embossed cloth cover, a ribbon marker and sprayed silver edges, this gorgeous volume is filled with beautiful illustrations and precise notes detailing the secret life of mermaids.
In 1872, intrepid (fictional) explorer Darcy Delamare disguised herself as a man to claim a place on board the (real life) scientific expedition of the HMS
Challenger. She made a record of her findings on the trip, recounting the
extraordinary sea creatures she witnessed: creatures that, until now,
nobody had believed really existed... mermaids!
Following on from the beautiful
A Natural History of Fairies and
A Natural History of Magick, this
beautifully illustrated vintage album is filled with descriptions and illustrations of Delamare's findings, from tales of
mermaids in ancient lore to
more recent sightings as well as facts on the
beliefs and superstitions surrounding these elusive creatures.
Children will
delight in discovering the anatomy, behaviour and lifecycles of the Merfolk and how they have hidden themselves from human discovery over millennia. Pore over the anatomy of tails, learn how these mysterious creatures communicate and
immerse yourself in their underwater world.
The
Folklore Field Guides series is a charming collection of beautifully illustrated handbooks on topics of lore and legend.
Fascinating facts are accompanied by
breathtaking illustrations, all presented in an engaging narrative form.
