About this title

Synopsis

Take a pilgrimage through Celtic Britain from pagan times to the present. The Celts' animistic religion deified natural forces, and these photographs reveal the magnificence of the yews, fens, and lakes where they worshipped. Some pictures catch the beauty of extended landscapes; others feature lush but stunted trees and giant figures carved into the earth. Includes an overview of Celtic influence and settlement, a map, and a gazetteer of sites. 192 pages, 138 color illus., 26 b/w illus., 8 1/2 X 11.
