The Secrets of Stonehenge

Publisher: Frances Lincoln Children's Books

Travel back in time 5,000 years and more, and relive the incredible true story of this awe-inspiring monument…

  • Discover the very first henge, dug out with antler-horn picks
  • Watch as the great bluestones are paddled down the river on rafts
  • See the massive sarsen stones - weighing as much as 10 minibuses - being dragged fifty kilometres and heaved into position
  • Find out about the Amesbury Archer, buried with his archer's wrist-guard and flint arrowheads

The mysteries of Stonehenge still draw visitors from far and wide. This beautifully illustrated text explains the history of the monument from its origins to the present day. Engaging and informative.
