Stonehenge by Bernard Cornwell. (£) Stonehenge, the mysterious structure that has haunted locals and tourists alike for generations, is given a credible, even fascinating, treatment in the prolific Cornwell's latest novel. He reaches back into English history, back into prehistory, to follow the exploits and fortunes of Hengall, the chief of the people of Ratharryn, and his three sons, Lengar, Camaban, and Saban. Lengar is poised to succeed his father as chief, but his greed interferes with his intentions.... Brad Hooper | Stonehenge

Chippindale. (£)
Nancy Anne Fox (see more about me) from Diamond Bar, CA This is a terrific
book about Stonehenge! Mr. Chippindale has created a wonderfully informative
and readable book about one of the most famous archaeological monuments
in the world.
This book takes the famous quote from Jacquetta Hawkes "Every age has the Stonehenge it deserves and - desires", and illustrates it by giving an overview of all the various paradigms that have been used to explain Stonehenge. Instead of giving the reader dreadfully boring and mind numbing details about Stonehenge and the research into it, he gives us a brief description of what is physically there at Stonehenge, then he outlines what each successive era has thought of Stonehenge since its "rediscovery" in the 12th century A.D. |
