Did Merlin really exist, or is he part of a fairy tale? Nikolai Tolstoy eloquently argues that the wizard Merlin did in fact exist. Through the use of diverse and rare literary sources, he shows Merlin to have been a historical figure--one of the last heirs to druidic tradition. 16 pages of black-and-white photos.
