(1) The French Stonehenge: an Account of the Principal Megalithic Remains in the Morbihan Archipelago (2) A Sentimental and Practical Guide to Amesbury and Stonehenge

Abstract

MR. WORSFOLD'S book, though the reason for its title, “Stonehenge,” is not very apparent, gives a popular and interesting account of the wonderful megalithic works at Carnac, in Brittany. Those who desire to enter more deeply into the subject should consult “Les Alignments de Kermario,” par James Miln Rennes (1881), a work which our author appears to have well studied, and “L'Astronomie Préhistorique,” par F. Gaillard, dans Ia Révue Mensuelle Interrnztionale des Sciences Populaires (15 Rue Lebrun, Paris).
