Covering the late Neolithic period, and the Bronze, Iron and Dark Ages, Sykes touches on several aspects of the Celtic landscape of ritual. What this book lacks in text it more than makes up for in stunning photography. The author's sphere of knowledge stretches as far as contemporary Celts, and the modern performance of Celtic ritual in its various religious and secular guises.
