Since 1994, when the first "Time Team" program was broadcast, archaeology has been brought to life for millions of people by Victor Ambrus and Mick Aston. Victor has produced hundreds of sketches and drawings of archaeological sites and the lives of those who would have inhabited them. For the first time, his drawings of individual excavations have been brought together to provide a dramatic chronological survey of British history--from Stone Age to modern via the Romans, the Vikings, and more. Add to this Mick Aston''s lively explanations and photographs, and you have an archaeological collaboration which is guaranteed to delight.

Updated and re-formatted into a handy pocket size text, this guide includes step-by-step instructions to help readers produce professional-looking drawings of ghosts. It also features advice on choosing drawing materials.
