Signed copy of Britain’s Secret Treasures

£20.00

For hundreds of thousands of years our ancestors have walked these isles burying, dropping and throwing away their belongings. Now these treaures lie waiting for us, keeping their secrets until we uncover them once again.

Britain’s Secret Treasures profiles eighty of the most fascinating finds ever discovered by members of the public.

From hoards of Roman gold and Bronze Age drinking vessels to tiny Viking spindle whorls and weapons from dozens of wars, all manner of treasures are described here. Some help prove that our ancestors were alive over half a million years ago, some saw their modern-day finders receive a generous reward, all provide an insight into the wonderful, dynamic, colourful history of our nation.

Books will be signed. if you’d like a dedication, let me know.

NOTE: Unfortunately I have to pass on the costs of postage, which are a bit astronomical. If the costs are a deal breaker then I totally understand and would urge you to support your local independent bookshop and buy direct from them. Most will be happy to order a copy for you if they don’t already have one in stock. That big well-known online retailer has them too…
