AINSWORTH, WILLIAM HARRISON., Windsor Castle.
USA Wildside Press 2002 First Edition Private Press Trade Paperback Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall Fine 284pp. There is in the folklore of Shropshire and Herefordshire a figure known as Wild Eric who, with his pack of flying hounds (the Seven Whistlers) reins wild elemental terror on the woodlands in those parts. WINDSOR CASTLE is Ainsworth's tale of Herne the Hunter, and the hunter is a weirdling hybrid = part Wild Eric and partly a species of Windsor Mephistopheles; in a very real way, this is a tale of the devil's special haunting of Henry VIII and all of those who so famously attended to him.
