About the Book

Archaeology is a beguiling occupation. Whowouldn't be attracted to finding cool, old stuffburied in the ground? It appeals to the child in usall.But archaeology isn't all gold masks, crystalskulls and temples. Often it's chert flakes on alake shore, burials in the forgotten corner of afield, or pioneer dwellings in the woods.Sometimes it just isn't all that glamorous.The reality is that for every well-knownarchaeologist - the kind you might see doingexciting things on TV - there are legions of lesshigh-profile characters working in thebackground. Their work may not be quite assexy or result in paradigm-changingdiscoveries, but it is important and valuable.The following chapters are snap-shots ofarchaeology from more than forty years of workin both Britain and Canada. Rather thanspending too much time on the scientific andtechnical, Nick has focussed on stories whichconvey the life of a working archaeologist ......well, his working life anyway.
About the Author: Nick Adams has stumbled through a career in archaeology since first taking up a shovel as a sixteen year old in the UK. Working on various projects in Britain, he eventually ended up in Canada, at first working for the Province of Ontario in Sault Ste. Marie, then for a non-profit research foundation in Kingston, and later as a freelance archaeological consultant. Unlike most who write books on archaeology, Nick has no pretensions to being a great academic or noted scientist. Nevertheless, he has successfully completed hundreds of archaeological assessment projects in Ontario, some of which were even a little bit interesting. After decades in the trenches, he finally got around to getting a piece of paper in 2003, earning an MA in Archaeology and Heritage (distinction) from the University of Leicester. When he's not riding his 1970s Moto Guzzi motorbikes or hiking in the UK, Nick runs a small, active archaeological consulting company in eastern Ontario. He has written two previous books (see over), a number of articles for 'RealClassic' motorcycle magazine, and is a regular contributor to many on-line forums.
