Beacons in the Landscape : The Hillforts of England, Wales and the Isle of Man

By Ian Brown

The first edition of this book, published in 2009, gave a detailed account of hillforts, one of our greatest archaeological monuments, which have a profound impact on the landscape but are so little understood. What were they and where are they located? How were they built, what was their function and how did they fit into prehistoric and later society? Lavishly illustrated, this revised and updated second edition not only looks again at these questions in the light of substantial increases in knowledge over the years since first publication, but also now includes the outstanding and unusual hillforts of the Isle of Man.
