A new, revised, and illustrated edition of the comprehensive account of one of the world's most important prehistoric monuments: Stonehenge. Archeologist Julian Richards surveys the surviving structure and its landscape; describes the economy of Stonehenge's builders; and includes the latest research into its physical, cultural and spiritual significance. There's a look at previous enquiries and the evidence for their beliefs, an examination of Stonehenge's precursors, and fascinating information that allows us at last to get glimpses of what the people who created and used Stonehenge might have been like.
