Description

Rivers and streams sculpt our landscape, and have connected our communities throughout history, from mountain to estuary and to the wide sea beyond. They give us water and food, trade and transport – yet they have a life-force all of their own.

In this collection of traditional folk tales from wild rivers, lakes, and streams, Lisa Schneidau retells old stories of danger and transformation, of river goddesses, ghosts and the mysterious creatures that dwell in the watery arteries of Britain and Ireland.

Lisa Schneidau is a professional storyteller, sharing stories that inspire, provoke curiosity and build stronger connections between people and nature. She tells stories at theatres, festivals, schools and events all over the UK. Lisa trained as an ecologist, and for twenty-five years she has worked with wildlife charities across Britain to restore nature in land, river and sea. She is the author of Botanical Folk Tales, Woodland Folk Tales and River Folk Tales, all published by The History Press. She lives on Dartmoor in south-west England.
