The people who built Newgrange were a special people.  With their magnificent works they have left their imprints on the sands of time. Their legacy tells us much about them.They were a highly organised neolithic society. They had advanced engineering skills. They had the courage to undertake massve projects.   They were skilled in art and astronomy. They had a multi-dimensional view of the cosmos that illuminated their world. They held powerful beliefs.Part of them no doubt still resides deep within ourselves. We need to know them better.  We can learn much from them. Ireland is at a cusp at the moment, as it also was in their time. For inspiration we need to look no further than the mounds of Meath.This book will take you inside the minds of those who built Newgrange and help you share their Neolithic imagination, courage and beliefs.Druids, stone-masons, builders, stone-carvers, boat-men, carpenters, bards: Each tells his own story in verse.
