The Lincolnshire Wolds Reviews

With more than 100 photographs, paintings, maps and diagrams, this book leaves the reader with a better understanding of this area which is well worth a visit.' -- Yorkshire Gazette Yorkshire Gazette For those interested in historical landscapes, then, this book is a nice sampler of a distinctive area, whose profile - as an AONB or an area of academic study - is rather lower than it might be... It certainly underlines gulfs of unexplored potential and their impact on the stories we tell; and in that, too, it performs a useful service.' -- Landscape History Landscape History Fourteen chapters provide a valuable topographical account of the area... A hundred illustrations complement the text and enhance the usefulness of a text of more than local appeal.' -- Northern History Northern History This book has been a major undertaking, bringing so many aspeacts of the area under one cover, and the editor is to be congratulated on assembling so many fields of expertise and interest. This will remain an important introduction to the Lincolnshire Wolds.' -- Lincolnshire History and Archaeology Lincolnshire History and Archaeology
