Description
They have been called one of the great barbarian peoples of the world. An impression of the Celts persists which portrays them as wild, warlike, ferocious and uncivilised – in their latter manifestations much given to drink, song and entertainment. Despite their numerical smallness the author contends that they made a major contribution to Western civilization.
With lavish colour and black and white illustrations, The Celts aims to trace the origin, growth, flowering and eventual decline of the Celts, a people who are traditionally portrayed as wild, excitable, warlike, ferocious and uncivilized.
