Cline does his best to re-burnish the lost glow of archaeology by collecting several stories of remarkable discoveries in a single well-written volume. The book goes a long way toward reviving the idea that the past, rather than being buried and gone, is the last and greatest frontier of human exploration. You'll meet famous archaeologists, explore legendary sites, and see the latest discoveries using new technologies.

I am one of the many thousands of people who always kind of hankered to be an archeologist when young but got distracted by real world business etc. Even missed taking college level course. So this book helps make up for it, a real joy to read. Highly recommend for all of us wannabe archeologists. Kindle Edition Verified Purchase.

I found it fascinating as I've always had an interest in this science. Well written and is not particularly challenging for those of us without a science background.

Great book, gives a good introduction to archeology, especially enjoyed the segements that discuss technical aspects of archeology field work, things that are more related to actually doing archeology. Excellently written and with humor, I highly recommend this book This is truly a tour de force.

I have subscribed to Archaeology Magazine for 20 years, ever since I visited many native sites in Alaska and far Eastern Russia with an archaeologist from Brown University. The book covers the early days of archaeology in the s and s.

Most of the important sites in the world are included. I learned about many places new to me and learned new things about sites I have visited. I was truly delighted to see the mention of a classmate from Brown, Martha Joukowsky, who has devoted her life to the excavation of Petra in Jordan.

Feb 19, Nathan rated it it was ok Shelves: Both stars I gave this book were given for its plotline, which I found original and interesting. I was let down however by Ian's rigid writing style and overuse of formal language; it was boring and pretty hard to read.
