The Ancient Celts by Barry Cunliffe

[Ursus]

I too have read this book. While not being the expert on archaeology that Pantagathus is, I found it generally informative and interesting.

I would also recommend "The World of the Celts" by Simon James.

I have also read "The Celts" by Peter Ellis, but I do not recommend this book as the author clearly has an agenda.

Norah Lofts "The Celts" was a decent read , but it seems to have dropped off the radar at Amazon UK -it was considered a solid introductory work when I was graduating,( at the time I was working on vernacular buildings and the historical evolution of the British landscape) so it was backup work .

im pleased to see Hoskins is still in print, this is invaluable if you are fascinated by the evolution of the land and how societal change influenced it.

ditto Brunskill, though she concentrates on buildings.

Funny that you say that about archaeology Ursus...

The one thing I didn't really say in the review is that Professor Cunliffe does at times drone on about certain archaeological finds that regard very simple points and found myself saying, "alright, I get the point".

However, it's what he's an expert at so I find absolutely no fault in it but in his own words it's not supposed to a book focused on that level of detail.

Regardless, Cunliffe is awesome.
