Description
Beautiful and strange, ancient monuments have long captured our attention and curiosity. We stand in awe before them, asking who created the Uffington White Horse - and why? What was it like to live in the shadow of Hadrian's Wall? What stories would the towering megaliths of Stonehenge and Avebury tell if they could speak?
Uncovering the enduring mystery of ancient sites, award-winning writer Peter Ross once again invites readers to travel with him as he celebrates their influence on art, culture and society, explores the way their meaning has evolved over time and simply delights in their magic.
Combining historical research and archaeological insights with stories from people to whom these sites are particularly important, Upon A White Horse journeys into the deep past of Britain and Ireland's ancient landscapes.
