About the Book: 

The people who created this great art were in many ways like ourselves - they lived and died, loved and married, worked and sang and faced the daily challenges of an uncertain world - just as we do. STUART McHARDY

Join historian Stuart McHardy as he examines the meanings of the Pictish symbol stones from a new perspective.

Part history, part art history, McHardy looks to the wealth of Scotland's symbolic stones to paint a diverse picture of the Picts, their lives, legacies and beliefs.
