The
Celts The Celts! Who are these terrifying and yet fascinating people? Helen Litton helps us step back thousands of years and meet them face to face! Celtic Europe, Britain and Ireland are explored – from the 8th century BC to the 5th century AD – with particular focus on Ireland, the last bastion of the Celtic world. From Julius Caesar writing about the Celts to the reconstructed Celtic dwellings, strange bog bodies, exotic archaeological finds, Celtic gods, the cult of the human head and the beauty of La Teen Celtic art, numerous illustrations, photographs and quotations paint a captivating and surprising picture. This is the next new edition of the Merlin/Wolfhound illustrated history series. Fully illustrated throughout with black & white and colour photographs, it is a concise and comprehensive insight into this fascinating period of history.
