On Salisbury Plain in southern England stands an awesome arrangement of stones that has been the subject of countless studies, poems, and legends dating back beyond the days of King Arthur and his court. The dramatic decoding of the mystery began when astronomer Hawkins decided to investigate the reason for that particular, peculiar arrangement of stones and holes at Stonehenge. As Dr. Hawkins recreates his dramatic discovery he tells of the mythology that has grown up around Stonehenge and of the remarkable techniques that were employed to bring the stones across 100 miles of sea and land to their site of construction.
