Product Information:
’’Metal detecting is more interesting to me than the new Rolling Stones record.’’
This is what Bill Wyman told a Japanese reporter in October 1991, shortly after he bought his first metal detector. Since then the hobby has become a passion for the former member of ‘’The greatest little Rock ‘n Roll band in the World’’ and, along the way, Bill has become Britain’s most unexpected historian.
Anyone who is interested in finding out more about the exciting discoveries made by amateur & professional archaeologists & what they tell us about the history of the British Isles will find this book a stimulating & entertaining companion. With copious colour & black & white illustrations, detailed maps, time lines, lists of museums & useful organisations, Bill Wyman's Treasure Islands is itself a treasure trove for the beginner or the more experience archaeological explorer.
