Publisher's Synopsis
This book takes the reader on an extraordinary journey. Using his skills as a dowser, the author explores the realm of Earth mysteries -- megaliths, ley-lines, barrows, beacon hills, and other ancient features -- and puts forward some startling, but nonetheless highly plausible ideas. He reveals a view of our world that links past and present, a world that hints at a magical technology linking people and place; a world whose energies could perhaps have been harnessed in the past to improve the quality of life. It is also a plea for us to rediscover the profound connection with place that our ancestors knew, and to begin to heal a relationship with land that has been badly ravaged by the values and assumptions of the modem world. "Needles of Stone" has long and rightly been considered a classic. With the addition of new chapters, this 30th Anniversary edition allows the author to bring the work up-to-date and gives him an opportunity to reflect on what has happened since the book was first written.
