...little more than a name till the late 19th century, and not until this year did scholars and the public have an opportunity to see all his works in one place. The place was Hamburg's Kunsthalle, and the occasion the celebration of its 100th anniversary. The result was the realization that Meister Francke, an altar painter who worked in Hamburg around the year 1420, has far better claim than his later compatriots, Dürer, Cranach or Grünewald, to the title of Germany's first great artist...

Richard Young, a suggestible publisher, is persuaded by a scientist friend to be guinea pig for his latest discovery: a potion which abruptly evokes the past. One sip puts Young in the company of Roger Kylmerth, an early occupant of Kilmarth, who is immersed in the intricate plottings of the neighboring gentry and even a national struggle between partisans of Edward III and England...
