{"product_id":"9781681053110","title":"Mazes and Labyrinths (Illustrated)","description":"\u003cp\u003eA delightful air of romance and mystery surrounds the whole subject of Labyrinths and Mazes.\u003cbr\u003eThe hedge-maze, which is the only type with which most of us have a first-hand acquaintance, is generally felt to be a survival of a romantic age, even though we esteem its function as nothing higher than that of a playground for children. Many a tender intrigue has been woven around its dark yew alleys. Mr. Compton Mackenzie, for example, introduces it most effectively as a lovers' rendezvous in \"The Passionate Elopement,\" and no doubt the readers of romantic literature will recall other instances of a like nature. The story of fair Rosamond's Bower is one which will leap to the mind in this connection. This type of maze alone is worth more than a passing thought, but it is far from being the only, or even the most interesting, development of the labyrinth idea.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNisyros Publishers has a proud history of publishing high quality and rare titles.
