Lincolnshire is a big county, ranging from the unexpected heights of the rolling Lincolnshire Wolds, across the prairie-like expanses of some of Britain's most fertile soils to a coastline which includes bracing Skegness and the ports of the mighty Humber. But outside the boundary it is scarcely known, which is a surprising fact in this overcrowded island. Moods of Lincolnshire is a superb evocation of this unknown but beautiful and varied county through over 140 wonderful colour photographs....

Mysterious Lincolnshire   -   Daniel Codd (Author)
Lincolnshire is an ancient county, it's perception as a quiet rural location belied by the fact that the area has seen centuries of tumultuous history. Settlements and ruins from bygone eras scatter the landscape, and these locations - often isolated and surrounded by lonely lanes and the open countryside Lincolnshire is famous for - hide many legends and mysterious secrets from bygone times right up until the present day. Dragons lie buried in hillsides...fairy folk once shared our environment with us, and maybe phantom hounds and the black panthers of the Wolds still do...
... Off the east coast, a giant sea serpent has been on-and-off reported. In the skies, phantom planes have been seen and strange otherworldly lights are regularly witnessed: are UFOs taking an interest in Lincolnshire's RAF bases? This book is designed to illustrate that the counties of Lincolnshire, North East Lincolnshire and North Lincolnshire are truly a land of mystery where strange, ancient stories are still told - and where even today in the 21st century the most curious, supernatural and frightening of events are still reported.
Hardcover: 192 pages; Publisher: Breedon Books Publishing Co Ltd (1 July 2007); ISBN-10: 1859835635; ISBN-13: 978-1859835630.
