STONEHENGE: THE STORY OF A SACRED LANDSCAPE (PB)

Perched on the chalk uplands of Salisbury Plain, the megaliths of Stonehenge offer one of the most recognizable outlines of any ancient structure, but its purpose remains unknown. In this book, Francis Pryor delivers a rigorous account of the nature and history of the monument, while also placing the enigmatic stones in a wider cultural context by exploring how antiquarians, scholars, writers, artists, 'the heritage industry', and neopagans have interpreted the site over the centuries.
