The Celtic Cross

One of the most recognizable elements within European culture is Celtic tradition. And it's the Celtic cross that symbolizes the very essence of Celtic-ness. Celebrate in this beautifully illustrated work the spiritual nature from which this emblem sprang, from its early forerunners to the incarnation we are most familiar with, complete with precedents and origins, archaic stones, differing British and Irish styles, the untimely fall of this symbol, and its resurgent place in society today.
