For a nonfiction work, it lacked concrete support. Also, it says little about the actual Stonehenge. It says more about the other events of the time. The only reason it was added to other scholarly works about its subject was because it came from an author that lived near it and experienced the majestic power of Stonehenge during the time when it was most popular.
