内容简介 The image of the Celt is one of the most emotive in the European past, evoking pictures of warriors, feasts, saints and scholars. This fully-illustrated book re-appraises the archaeology of the Celtic-speaking areas of Britain and Ireland from the late fourth to the twelfth century AD.
媒体推荐 "Thirty-one years ago, the first edition of this survey of eight centuries of Celtic experience in the British Isles was a very fine book. Now, the second edition, a thorough rewrite fully aware of numerous new discoveries and changed interpretations, is even better... It is certainly the easiest place to begin to comprehend this fascinating era.... Libraries of all levels would do well to add this to their collection." -Choice
