Reviews
Told in a light hearted, tongue-in-cheek manner and with comic-book style illustrations, the facts and information are easy to absorb. * The Scotsman *
With a helpful glossary and index at the back, and colour, adventure and discovery on every page, there could be no better introduction to life in the Stone Age. * Lancashire Evening Post *
One of the best resources I have found written for this time period. It is written in an incredibly engaging way and is both entreating and informative. * Reading Zone *
