5.0 out of 5 stars A good starting point if Celtic history interests you, December 18, 2000
By A Customer
A really lovely book to own with gorgeous photographs and a text that is as interesting as it is informative.

Highly recommended.

1.0 out of 5 stars Pagan, not Christian view, July 14, 2009
By Hanley (Maryland) - See all my reviews
I was expecting more on the Christian crosses, as the cover shows. It is all how wonderful the pagans were, mother earth worshipers as you find today. No color photos. Mostly illustrations. Not worth the money.

5.0 out of 5 stars Symbol of the millenia, March 12, 2006
By Linda "katknit" (CT, United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
The religion and lore of the Celts had a tremendous impact on the development of Western spiritual thought. Today, Celtic knots, animals, and other figures are experiencing a new popularity. "The Celtic Cross" is a lovely, well researched volume that describes the art carved upon the stone crosses scattered across northern Europe, especially the British Isles. The iconography and other symbolism, the development of the art form, and the spiritual meaning are all discussed in some depth. The photos are terrific, and a list of place to see crosses in situ or in museums is also included, should you wish to see a few in person.
