Edmund and the Shaman

0

Mike Williams Ph.D is a practicing shaman, latter-day Druid and archaeologist. In his own words:

“Ever since I was a child, the ancient world filled me with wonder. Here were people who lived thousands of years ago but left remains that I could visit, literally walking in their footsteps. As I got a little older, I wanted to know more: what these people talked about; what they thought; and, most of all, what they believed in.”

Mike’s excellent blog recently featured a post on Edmund. My book gets a mention and his personal take on the Edmund myth makes for interesting reading – more here.
