I bought this for my die-hard fan of a husband. Influenced by Law's readings from other mystics such as Thomas a Kempis, Johann Tauler and others, this book is full of mystic insight and practical wisdom. Several emails between us later, my problem was solved. The purpose of stonehenge and other neolithic monuments is a fascinating mystery. A smashing little book. Mackenzie's earlier work, 365 Great Bible Stories: The Good news of Jesus from Genesis to Revelation, How God Changes People highlights them with a special emphasis on how God brings people to a saving knowledge of Himself.
