Enchanted Wales

Out now and published by Calon, (an imprint of the University of Wales Press), Jacob's black and white bold illustrations take the reader on a journey into Welsh myths that deserve to be better known outside their homeland.

 

Featuring heroes, tricksters, shape-shifting animals, magicians, and witches capable of either bringing disaster or triumph to those in their path, this book introduces readers to the world of Welsh mythic literature and its deep-rooted origins. The accompanying art, reminiscent of linocut, evokes a traditional and eerie aesthetic.
