A richly illustrated document of England's mythic landscape through antique postcards.

A richly illustrated document of England's mythic landscape through antique postcards.

What remains of Elfin England? Postcards From Fairyland- Missives From England's Magical Landscapes excavates a hidden topography haunted by boggarts, imps, hobgoblins, and fairies through the lost art of the picture postcard.

Compiled and authored by Nina Antonia, and richly illustrated with hundreds of color and black and white images, this unique survey illuminates a shadowy landscape teetering on the brink of modernity, where devils, witches, and pucks once ran riot before the technologies of steam train and street lamp sent them scurrying into obscurity.
