The book firstly draws together the available knowledge on the prehistoric and roman periods in North East Yorkshire and then constructs the most acceptable explanations for the human populations who adapted to and began to shape the landscape which we see today. The first two chapters present the geological and environmental background which is essential to a proper understanding of the period; the next five chapters discuss the region from the arrival of Middle Stone Age man through to the time of the Romans.
The present version has been updated to include the results of a further decade of research and discoveries and provides one of the most comprehensive source books available for the study of the early development of an upland landscape in England.
The North York Moors National Park, in association with the Council for British Archaeology, felt that such an outstanding contribution to the understanding of North-East Yorkshire (much of which was designated a National Park in 1952) should be more widely available and have therefore published this new edition. It will serve as an authoritative work for the region into the next century.
