They make us who we are and bear witness to the shifting patterns of human life over the generations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBringing to bear a lifetime's digging, archaeologist Francis Pryor delves into Britain's hidden urban and rural landscapes, from Whitby Abbey to the navvy camp at Risehill in Cumbria, from Tintagel to Tottenham's Broadwater Farm. Through fields, woods, moors, roads, tracks, and towns, he reveals the stories of our physical surroundings and what they meant to the people who formed them, used them, and lived in them. These landscapes, he stresses, are our common physical inheritance. If we can understand how to make them yield up their secrets, it will help us, their guardians, to maintain and shape them for future generations.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFrancis Pryor's work is a testament to the power of archaeology to uncover the hidden stories of our past and shed light on the rich and complex tapestry of Britain's landscapes. His meticulous research and dedication to preserving the heritage of our physical surroundings are an inspiration to us all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 124g\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 131 x 197 x 10 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9780141985664\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Francis Pryor","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44100917788922,"sku":"9780141985664","price":9.27,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/9f756d91597aa8f6f4fd521c0c08cfed.jpg?v=1623976894","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/paths-to-the-past-encounters-with-britains-hidden-landscapes","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
