Wiithin its pages you will find, not only an amazing tale, but historical facts and interpretations of major events in storied history of the area which is today known as Salisbury, England.

I haven't read it yet but it's just been added to my list. Old Sarum is just outside Salisbury, and both Salisbury and Stonehenge are only 30 miles from Bournemouth where I grew up. It's an amazing area, full of iron age hill forts and burial mounds, not to mention wonderful scenery.

- Looks like a great book. I actually think I saw it for sale once in the United Kingdom shop in Disney World's Epcot. I thought it looked really interesting. Thanks for the review
