Award-winning author and journalist Peter Ross joins Dawn Geddes to discuss his new book, Upon a White Horse: Journeys in Ancient Britain and Ireland.
Beautiful and strange, ancient monuments have long captured our imagination. We stand in awe before them, asking who created the Uffington White Horse, and why? What was it like to live in the shadow of Hadrian’s Wall? What stories would the towering megaliths of Stonehenge and Avebury tell if they could speak?
Uncovering the enduring mystery of ancient sites, Ross once again invites readers to travel with him as he celebrates their influence on art, culture, and society, explores how their meaning has evolved, and simply delights in their magic.
Combining historical research and archaeological insights with stories from people to whom these sites matter most, Upon A White Horse travels into the deep past of Britain and Ireland's ancient landscapes.
