Excerpt from Life in Early Britain: Being an Account of the Early, Inhabitants of This Island and the Memorials Which They Have, Left Behind Them The subject - matter of the following pages was arranged originally for a course of lectures which was delivered at Mason College, Birmingham. The object of that course, as of this book, was to present a brief but clear account of the different races which inhabited this country in prehistoric and early historic times, and to describe the chief relics which each has left behind it. It is hoped that this little book may be serviceable as an introduction to the study of Prehistoric Archaeology, and to the larger works on that subject by Sir John Evans, Piofessor Boyd Dawkins and others, the names of which will be found in the Appendix. In order to add to its practical value some attempt has been made to supply a list of objects, arranged in counties, by which the facts alluded to in the body of the work may be more fully illustrated. These also will be found in an Appendix. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
