Our Pick: Book number 5 The Red Haired Girl from the Bog: The Landscape of Celtic Myth and Spirit by Patricia Monaghan. Patricia traveled to Ireland for the first time as an adult, seeking her roots. What she found was much more than her physical ancestors. She found spiritual forebears in the legends and landmarks of spirited women: witches, hags, wanton girls, mothers. This book is the story of her journeys, and the story of the journeys the legends have made through time.
