NEW! ThE Book of CElTiC VErsEThe Celts have always loved words. They called their earliest bards ‘Carpenters of Song’, and established a tradition which began with the intricate magical poems of Taliesin in the 6th century and continued into our own time. John Matthews, a leading authority on Celtic lore, has chosen the finest works by these poets, and translated many of the oldest for this volume. In this beautifully presented collection, his selection reflects the unique aspects of the Celtic tradition: a love of nature, and the rich heritage of myth, legend, magic and spirituality that is among the finest in the world. Hardcover, 256 pages.M1031 The Book of Celtic Verse $14.95

Heroic ensembleStride across the moors and meadows, or the decks of a pirate ship, in dramatic attire of days gone by. Burgundy Irish dress includes lace-up bodice (with internal boning for shaping) and full skirt. Bodice reverses to black. (Dress is also available in hunter green with curry skirt; view at gaelsong.com.) The hip-length muslin chemise is trimmed in an eternal knot motif with silver metallic thread. Gathered underskirt in black provides additional flounce. Dress is 43" from waist.

The gentleman’s ensemble bespeaks a noble heart: black cotton velveteen breeches with button fly and pockets, topped by 100% cotton highlander shirt (in black or white) with buttons at wrists and collar.

The rogue’s outfit is ready for action—leap on a horse or climb a ship’s rig-ging in long black trousers, maroon vest, and leather head wrap. Vest laces up front with grommets for a fit like a glove and has a back peplum that flatters your rear. Vest is reversible to black and can be worn alone or with the black or white highlander’s shirt. Leather bracers protect the arms and lace up to add the final robust touch.
