Howells, Tom - Ancient Britain For Modern Folk

A pocket-sized field guide to the mysteries and histories of 60 ancient sites across Britain. In this increasingly globalised, modernised, interconnected world, what can we learn from the first temples and burial sites built by our ancestors? This handbook brings some of the muddier, forgotten aspects of our shared history to life, offering a compelling insight into the origins of British cultural identity and a reminder of our deep-rooted connection to the earth. Tom Howells is the writer of An Opinionated Guide to Weird London and An Opionated Guide to Wine London. He’s happiest when wandering the neolithic barrows and stones of the Isle of Wight, and once got locked in Carisbrooke Castle.
