The Celts

by Robert Adkinson (Editor), Thames & Hudson

The last significant tribal culture in Europe, the Celts are today associated with a particularly rich body of symbolism and mystery. Rituals, omens, and signs were central to their religious beliefs, and were expressed by a variety of beautiful designs and symbols found in Celtic stonework, metalwork, and manuscripts. Includes 78 illustrations, 40 in color.

Very much a "pocket book" of Celtic lore and story. Worth the read if you want a brief glimpse, find a tome on the topic if you're looking for something more in depth, because this isn't it.
