The good Kentish mead ran through my veins and deepened my dream of things past, present, and to come . . .
John Ball encounters strangeness after strangeness, waking from his modern-day slumber . . . to find himself beside a quiet country road, garbed in an old-fashioned cloak, watching a horseback knight in armor passing by. He walks into a village where the buildings are all hand-fashioned -- with stone-dust from the building of the church still fresh upon the sward. He has been transported centuries into the past!
Also included in this volume is William Morris's classic, "A King's Lesson."
