Stonehenge is tone of the most famous landmarks in the world but we know so little about its origin and purpose. In this fascinating essay we look at some of the myths and some of the facts connected to this mysterious and enigmatic landmark. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900’s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
