Description
Stonehenge has been woven into the earliest legends and has been studied by archaeologists, town planners, and those who consider it their spiritual home. Rosemary Hill's comprehensive history explores the structure from its creation around 3000 BC to the present day.
The author takes a nuanced approach, refusing to adopt one theoretical position, instead providing a wide-ranging and expansive history of Stonehenge. From its construction to the impact of modern roads, Hill sheds light on this ancient monument's enduring significance.
