First published in 1927 by Methuen & Company, London.
There are few surviving accounts of the early history of Britain and
France. Stonehenge and the remaining stone circles of Britain's ancient
past bear silent witness to a largely forgotten time - a time sometimes
known as 'the time of the Druids.'
But who exactly were the Druids? In this classic volume, the question is
settled in an authoritative account that places Druidism in the context of
the prehistory and social atmosphere of early Gallic and British
civilization. Drawing on records from the Roman conquest, and supported
by over fifty illustrations of important sites and artefacts, the author's vast
knowledge of early British history as a Curator of Antiquities at the British
Museum brings this fascinating period vividly to life.
"The Druids" is of interest to both the historian and to any curious reader
who is interested to learn the ritual uses of mistletoe or the secret life of
an oak grove.
Contains more than 50 black-and-white illustrations.
Appendix: Greek and Latin texts.
Includes index.
