Description: This is the life story of one of Britain's most influential and colorful archaeologists, whose career has spanned the second half of the 20th century. After earlier short-lived careers in accountancy, the Royal Air Force, photography, and school teaching, Philip Rahtz stumbled into archaeology after the Second World War--and never looked back. Today he is the oldest archaeologist in the country to be still active in digging, writing, and lecturing.
