Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Good. Philippa Scott [Photographs] (illustratore). First Edition. In the last thirty-five years Peter Scott has travelled almost all over the world. Wherever he has been he has kept a journal in words and pictures. This is the second volume to be published in book form, and tells of journeys in the northern hemisphere. His observations of natural history will interest not only scientists but also all those who have a fascination with places and their wildlife. Out in the field he sketches what he sees, using whatever medium comes to hand - pen, pencil, ball-point, felt-tip - and works up colour with crayon or paint. The illustrations are thus the careful record of a highly skilled artist drawing from a background of scientific understanding: they are the pictorial record of a man who knows exactly what he is recording and why. The diaries reveal the other interests and achievements of this remarkable man. He writes about archaeology, history, human behaviour, scuba-diving, and above all about conservation, in which field he is one of the most knowledgeable advocates, respected throughout the world for his balanced and enlightened view. Thus, when we visit a country in his diaries, we get some insight into the problems in the management of its environment. With the author we meet hundreds of characters, who are described with directness and a sense of humour. He is outspoken when he thinks people, institutions or policies are mistaken, but quick to attribute credit. The diaries have been edited by Miranda Weston-Smith, who has sorted the material into regions, each of which is the subject of a self-contained section. Copiously illustrated with Peter Scott's on-the-spot drawings and paintings, and with scene-setting photographs by his wife, they are a treasure house of knowledge, anecdotes, people, places and wildlife. 288 pages. Illustrated with colour and black and white photographs. Illustrator: Philippa Scott [Photographs]. Quantity Available: 1. Shipped Weight: 1-2 kilos.

This new and exhaustive study examines this fascinating people from the first evidence of Celts in the archaeological and historical record to the early post Roman period. Because the ancient Celts were virtually non-literate, scholars have to rely on archaeological evidence and the comments of Classical writers, in order to build up a picture of the Celtic past. This picture is incomplete, but it shows a fascinating, warlike, artisitc people who created beautiful objects, told wonderful stories and worshipped strange and powerful divine forces. The Celtic World is one of the most comprehensive studies of the Celts in recent years, with new research material from leading Celtic scholars from Europe, Britain and America. The book includes chapters on archaeology, language, literature, warfare, rural life, towns, art, religion and myth, trade and industry, political organization, society and technology. It also looks at the Celts in Italy, Spain, France, Eastern Europe, the Rhineland, England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland and concludes with a survey of modern Celts and how they view their Celtic identity. The Celtic World will be invaluable for students and academics of Celtic studies, and of interest to anyone fascinated by the Celts." - Publisher. *** I CELTIC ORIGINS: 1. Who were the Celts?; 2.
