16 pp - One of the very collectable "Take Home Books" series from the 1950s and '60s. 1st ed. "The rocks beneath the soil give shape and form to the land - like the bones in our bodies. And, as our bones limit and influence what our bodies can do, and thus affect the way we live, so the rocks beneath the surface of the land affect our society and give it a form and shape." John Chenevix Trench (17 Oct 1920-), an advertising copywriter, author and amateur archaeologist, wrote several THB titles on history and archaeology. He was also a novelist who wrote four mystery/detective novels with series character, Martin Cotterell, an archaeologist-detective.
