I have to say I'm not usually impressed by 'picture books' of ancient sites.... by most landscape photography these days, to be fair. Same old views of the same old predictable locations. However, happening to chance upon a copy of the "Aerial Atlas of Ancient Britain" by David R. Abram in Leadenhall Market Waterstones a few weeks ago, and wowing at the crisp images...I really had to have it. Perhaps the first 'must-have' book of the genre since stumbling across Cope's day-glo tome languishing in the half-price bargain bin over 20 years ago now. Currently a fiver off on Amazon with free delivery @ £24.99
Hell, Mr Abram even has an image of Skye's wondrously remote Rubh an Dunain, plus The Nantlle Ridge's Y Garn cairns. Exceptional stuff.
