Enchanted: The Faerie and Fantasy Art of Linda Ravenscroft
List Price: $19.95
Hardcover: 112 pages Publisher: Artist's and Photographers' Press Ltd (2009)
“I am often asked why I chose to paint faeries. The answer is—I didn’t, they chose me!” For artist Linda Ravenscroft, capturing the fairy world on paper is nothing less than a calling. Enchanted is her third book devoted to these fantastical creatures, and it is her finest work yet. Linda has created images rich in detail and magic, able to transport viewers into mysterious other realms. In addition to the paintings, she reveals a little about her artistic approach…but generally lets the work speak for itself. A gorgeous gift book for fairy-lovers.

A Field Guide to the Little People
by Nancy Arrowsmith/George Moorse
Paperback 296 pages, Publisher: Quality Paperback Book Club (1977)
In high summer meadows, nestled in the moors, near old castles, or behind the kitchen stove—these are the places where the Little People may be found.
Make the acquaintance of White Ladies and Red Caps, Church Grims and Hobgoblins, English Fairies, Leprechauns, Sirens, Hey-Hey Men, and all of their strange and mythical kin. Become wise in the ways of these magical creatures, some beautiful and benevolent, others cunning, menacing, or morose.
For many years, this field guide has been as elusive as a Will-o’-the-Wisp. This is the first opportunity for fans to once again own an English-language edition of one of the most revered introductions to elf folk ever written.

Gnomes
By Wil Huygen (Author), Rien Poortvliet (Illustrator)
Hardcover: 212 pages Publisher: Harry N. Abrams; 20 Anv edition (1977)
Gnomes is the product of Rien Poortvliet and Wil Huygen’s observation of the local gnome population in Holland. Until Gnomes was first published in Dutch in 1976, these friendly nocturnal creatures were only represented in folk lore; descriptions were often incomplete or simply inaccurate. Poortvliet and Huygen, having studied and interviewed gnomes for two decades, set out to fill this gap with their own encyclopedic tome.

Gnomes covers all areas of gnome culture, including architecture, education, courtship, medicine, industry, and relationships with other mythical creatures. Huygen’s sober descriptions are balanced by Poortvliet’s light-hearted portrayals of gnomes at work and at play. This beautifully illustrated volume continues to engage and enchant readers of all ages.

"SAY THIS /Three times, with your eyes shut_/
'Mothuighim boladh an Éireannaigh bhinn bhreugaigh faoi m'fhóidín dúthaigh.'
And you will see/What you will see"
A loose translation of this Gaelic phrase is "I sense the smell of a sweet, enchanting Irishman around my dear homeplace."
