I'd have to say, from my point of view, these few are essential. though they only deal with the UK and closeby.

Prehistoric Anglesey - Frances Lynch - does exactly what the cover says, all things prehistoric and Anglesey related

Prehistoric Britain fron the Air - Timothy Darvill

Prehistoric Britain - Timothy Darvill

The Stone Circles of Britain Ireland and Brittany - Aubrey Burl (winging it's way to you as i write)

The Henge Monuments - Geoffrey Wainright. A little old now, though still an informative read.

Hengeworld - Mike Pitts (can be bought in paperback for about £8)

Stonehenge Decoded - Gerald s Hawkins a bit new agey, but OK

Origins of Britain - Lloyd And Jennifer Laing (pretty old this, so might be hard to come by)

Seahenge - Francis Pryor

Some of the new agey ones are worth picking up

The White Goddess - Robert Graves

The Avebury Cycle - Micheal Dames

and there's another by dames about Silbury, but can't remember the title.

Plus English Heritage have some good 'general' reads...The Bronze Age - Micheal Parker Pearson
The First Farmers, The Iron Age, Niall sharples etc...


Hope this helps
