During the period 4000-1000 BC, prehistoric Britain and Ireland were at their closest. There were significant differences, but at the same time their monuments, art, and artifacts were closely related. This volume brings together the latest research from some 25 prehistorians on both sides of the Irish Sea to produce a clearly written and well-illustrated academic guide to this period.
