 " Archaeologists will be grateful to Sir E. Antrobus if he will adopt the 

 suggestions of the Wiltshire Society." The Ancient Monuments Act 

 needs improvement, so as to give the nation " the option of purchase at a 

 fair price " of any monuments of national interest which are neglected or 

 in danger of being destroyed.

Stonehenge is "by far the grandest annual sun-register in Europe," and 

 of "unknown antiquity." But to attempt to recover the date of its 

 erection by observation of the deviation of the present position of sunrise 

 on Midsummer day from that originally indicated by the Pointer Stone is 

 (Mr. Bacon thinks) hopeless ; for (1) the stones have certainly shifted (by 

 subsidence); and (2) the altar stone is no " mathematical centre " from 

 which to make the observation.

 Practically an outline of the author's book on the same subject.

with forty-four illustrations : London. 



Beautifully illustrated ; and altogether a most useful book. The monument 

 was "raised by British chieftains subject to Eoman influence," during the 

 time of Agricola (79 A.D.).

A reply to some criticisms of the author's book upon Stonehenge.

Avebury and Stonehenge (though perhaps separated from each other by 

 many centuries) both belong to pre-Druidical times (p. 39).
