5.0 out of 5 stars
Comfort book, March 6, 2006
This review is from: All the best rubbish (Hardcover)
This is one of my favorite books, so much so that I am prone to own more than one copy. First read many years ago, it is an in depth look at how Mr. Hume views history, and the archaeological physical items recovered from various excavations. Just the ticket for the armchair historical archaeologist. His writing style is easy and readable. Touches on British archaeology, colonial Williamsburg, Jamestown, and various colonial historical sites and artifacts. His love of ancient and historical items is obvious, and it is easy to travel in one's mind while reading his book. His best book in my humble opinion, and I have read them all, no kidding.
