Описание: From the author of 'Britain BC', 'Britain AD' and 'Britain in the Middle Ages' comes the fourth and final part in a critically acclaimed series on Britain's hidden past It might be thought that in the modern world, where documentary evidence abounds, there is no place for archaeology. But nothing could be further from the truth. Documentary records alone are not sufficient to provide a balanced view of Britain's recent history.
This is hardly surprising in the agricultural and industrial 'revolutions', when pioneers were too busy inventing to record what was happening around them. But the same could apply in much later times. In the Second World War the imminent threat of invasion and the sheer pressure of events made the keeping of records less important than the building of physical defences, such as concrete anti-tank cubes and pill-boxes.
As a result, archaeological evidence still provides the most reliable guide to the extent of Britain's anti-invasion defences in the autumn of 1940. Covering the whole of the post-medieval period, from 1550 to the present day, Francis Pryor brings his customary wit and erudition to the study of modern historical archaeology, probably the fastest-growing branch of the subject. Ranging over topics as diverse as the birth of modern agriculture, the growth of towns and cities, and the development of roads, canals and railways, he brings to a gripping conclusion his illuminating journey into Britain's archaeological past.

Описание: Americans have been intrigued with the idea of finding gold deposits since the California Gold Rush of 1848. There is a thrill to finding that first nugget in your pan, and an even bigger thrill at finding larger and larger nuggets.There are new metal detectors and dry washing equipment that make gold panning easier, even in arid areas where water is not available.Gold prospecting has become family affairs. It's a hobby that will bring the family together, especially when they find that first flake or nugget of gold.
Описание: "We hold these truths to be self-evident", "Four score and seven years ago", "We the people" -- these quotes are now part of the American vernacular; these expressions are now embedded in the very fabric of the nation's culture. From Patrick Henry's speech to Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation, these principles and documents have defined American political theory as well as history. In fact, the very notion of what it means to be an American is, at least partially, shaped by these political beliefs. Some have argued that these political concepts are irrelevant and outdated and are simply quaint reminders of America's earlier days, with their message not as pertinent for a 21st century contemporary society. Yet, many of the ideas presented in these speeches and writings are just as applicable today as they were the many decades, or even centuries, ago when they were first created. American society in the last 200 years has undergone rapid political, social, and economic changes; but the essential question about the nature of government and its relationship to the people is eternal. The ideas and values articulated in these documents are not archaic abstractions, but reflections on how people can create, as well as maintain, a stable and just society. The individuals who drafted these documents knew that history did not simply repeat itself, but instead the desires and actions of the people were repeating themselves. It is for this reason that these political documents are still relevant and essential in order to reflecting and evaluating the actions of people and their government. These principles are still visible in contemporary American society; even though these same political principles seem to conflict with each other and create a level of tension within the society. The timeless nature of these values is something that readers of this book will hopefully remember as they contemplate the various ideas presented in these pages. Provides readers with: the original historical text, easy to understand modern-day interpretations, as well as a description of the historical context surrounding each document.
