London: Constable and Robinson, 2006. A near Fine unmarked copy (Fine apart from minnor indentations to top edge) with near Fine dustjacket which is not price clipped. 257 pages. Illustrated throughout. In the book Alex Marshall investigates how geological features; archaeological remnants of past civilizations; and layered networks transporting water, electricity, and people have shaped these cities through centuries of political turbulence and advancements in engineering - and how they are determining the course of the cities' future. From the first-century catacombs of Rome, the New York subway system, and the swamps and ancient quays beneath London, to San Francisco's fault lines, the depleted aquifer under Mexico City, and Mao Tse-tung's extensive network of secret tunnels belowBeijing, these subterranean environments offer a unique cross-section of a city's history. **** A LARGE HEAVY VOLUME OF 0.885 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST ****… Read More

Description:
London: Souvenir Press, 1989. A Fine unmarked copy with Very Good+ dustjacket which is not price clipped. A large format volume of 256 pages beautifully illustrated throughout in colour. Coloured map front endpapers. The book is the story of Thor Heyerdahl's love of mystery - and of an island and its people. Over 30 years ago, the man who did such important, pioneering work in Kon-Tiki wrote another book Aku-Aku about Easter Ispand. He was invited later to return to Easter Island and there confronted the conundrum of the famous haunting statues that stud the lovely island, massive and mysterious. How were they made? How were they moved? What did the natives mean when they had said, those many years earlier, that 'the statues walked'? PLEASE NOTE: A LARGE HEAVY VOLUME OF 1.2 KILO UNPACKED WEIGHT WHICH MAY REQUIRE ADDITIONAL SHIPPING COST A1A. First. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.

Description:
London: The Bodley Head, 1975. A Fine unmarked copy with near Fine price clipped dustjacket. Relating archaeological discovery to the Commentaries of Julius Caesar and Tacitus's Agricola, Professor Cunliffe traces the conquest of Gaul and of Scotland, then turns to Northern Europe : recent excavations in Romania have filled in many of the details of Trajan's conquest of Dacia, and in Hungary they have provided a vivid picture of what life was like on the edge of the Roman frontier. On the site of modern Budapest the remains of the Roman town and fortifications mark the base of a large garrison which faced across the Danube the ever-present attack from the germanic tribes. **** NOT EX LIB **** 22.
