Books with author C. Mason

A special and unusual relationship began when Cherie Mason helped an injured fox that came into her yard one winter morning. Crippled by a steel-jawed trap, the young fox had every reason to mistrust all humans, yet he was won over by Cherie's persistent gentleness (and tidbits from her kitchen). Suffused with a gentle sense of wonder, Wild Fox speaks with great resonance to a deep and very human impulse: the longing to span the gulf between the species.

This interesting and well-illustrated study focuses on one particular element of the Roman navy, the Classis Britannica. Mason draws on recent excavations of Saxon shore forts, the remains of the few warships that have been found, and the distribution of Classis Britannica tile stamps in England and along the coast of mainland Europe, to identify the organization of the British fleet, the location of its ports and harbors, the type of ships used, and the sea paths taken.

The clock is ticking, and it won't be long before the Mysharo curse envelops the planet, and the whole of Ausonia is shrouded in gloom for all eternity.
