About this book
Megalithic monuments, earthworks, customs, coins, place-names and fairy superstitions are the evidence Harold Bayley uses to read England's prehistory. He fits fragments from each field together, in what he calls the jigsaw system, to attack archaeological problems that single specialists had failed to settle.
Fifteen chapters carry titles such as The Magic of Words, A Tale of Troy, Albion, Gog and Magog, Puck, Oberon and Scouring the White Horse, with five appendixes and an index. It was published in London in 1919 and is dedicated to W. L. Groves. Bayley also wrote The Lost Language of Symbolism.
