  • Coastline

    £25.00

    From prehistory to the modern era, our coastline had shaped Britain, not only physically but socially, economically and culturally.

For thousands of years the coastline has been both Britain’s frontier and its connection to the wider world. Exploring key coastal themes throughout British history and introducing some of the most significant, intriguing and quirky places that express the pivotal role our coastal heritage has played, archaeologist and presenter Ben Robinson looks to our coastline to tell not only the stories of our past, but also of our present.
