Not sure this is still in print - I got my copy browsing in a Castlebar bookshop en-route to Dooncarton - but nevertheless an excellent volume with many colour photos, plans and equally informative text from Carleton Jones focussing upon Ireland's megalithic tombs. Temples of Stone - Exploring The Megalithic Tombs of Ireland Carleton Jones Published 2007 by The Collins Press, Cork ISBN 13: 9781905172054

Just Started "Stairway to the Stars" and it kicks off with a pretty great section on Stonehenge. Bit heavy going in places, but looks like its going to a good read :)

See - http://heritageaction.wordpress.com/2011/02/17/17th-century-stonehenge-book-discovered/ Looks interesting, although it cant be in ‘Old English’ if it’s 17th century.

Very interesting, I wonder who wrote them as it doesn't say does it? I guess the selling price may well indicate how well-known the author was in this field.

But knowing your 'heat-seeking' abilities for finding things out you will already be on the case :D
