A Wonderful Journey--A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight,
By WB (Ivoryton, CT USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Gale of the World (Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight) (Paperback)
This series of books (15 in all that make up A Chronicle of Ancient Sunlight) is a wonderful journey of discovery, history and vivid storytelling. Williamson's novel is brilliant. Each volume stands on its own, but is best read from the beginning (Volume 1 - The Dark Lantern) to truly experience the cycle of Phillip Maddison's (and one's own in some way) life. Volume 15, The Gale of the World, makes one want to start again from the beginning. An epic tale. Also see henrywilliamson.org for more information on "The Chronicle" and HW's many other works. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Brilliant!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The gale of the world (His A chronicle of ancient sunlight) (Hardcover)
Brilliant piece of work from a brilliant author. Williamson's loyalty to Europe and the furthering of Germanic culture has left much of his work (like 'The Gale Of The World')unread due to a type of blacklisting by the intellectual community of post-war Europe. I reccomend this work to anyone who wishes to read an eloquent piece of work by one of the greatest naturalist writers of this century (or any!).
