BEYOND THE BROCHS: CHANGING PERSPECTIVES ON THE LATER IRON AGE IN ATLANTIC SCOTLAND
by Ian Armit
Published by Edinburgh University Press. 1st. 1990
Slightly better than very good condition in a slightly better than very good dustwrapper. The historic peoples and kingdoms of Atlantic Scotland - the Picts, Scots and the Norse - have their roots in the prehistory of the region. Until recently, the study of that prehistory focused on the monumental architecture of brochs and wheelhouses to the virtual exclusion of wider concerns. This book attempts to broaden this approach and gives an invaluable reappraisal of the period when prehistory mergest into written history. Brown cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w photos and drawings.
Corners of boards very lightly bumped. Very minor foxing to text block. Contents clean. Pictorial dustwrapper is lightly browned.
