| Picked up a copy of Stukeley's Stonehenge* today. Hardback, annotated transcription of Stukeley's early work at Stonehenge. The, "...manuscript has remained unpublished, even in part, for well over two hundred years. It consists of some one hundred and forty pages varying in length from full pages to sheets of one or two lines."* The book has a six page introduction to the history of the manuscript; over thirty (many small) black and white illustrations and photographs; two appendices; seventeen pages of notes; two pages of references; a three page bibliography and a six page index. Printed on good quality, light buff-coloured paper. Black buckram cover with dust jacket. Maybe not the sort of book you'd read from cover-to-cover but a good reference. Big disappointment was that it contains only a few of the original engravings but these can be seen/downloaded at - http://kobek.com/ * [Stukeley's 'Stonehenge'[/b]: an unpublished manuscript, 1721-1724. Edited by Aubrey Burl and Neil Mortimer. ISBN 0-300-09895-2.
