First published in 1988,  The Dartmoor Reaves  is a classic story of archaeological fieldwork and discovery, and a winner of the  Archaeological Book Award. This major new edition adds both  colour illustrations and two substantial new chapters to the  original groundbreaking text, which revolutionised our  understanding of Britain's prehistoric landscapes.  Dartmoor has long been known for the richness of its prehistoric  heritage; stone circles, hut circles, massive burial cairns, and  stone rows all pepper the landscape. In the 1970s a new dimension  was added, with the recognition that the long-ignored reaves  (ruined walls) are also prehistoric; Dartmoor now posed all sorts  of questions about the nature of Bronze Age society. Andrew  Fleming describes the critical moment when his own fieldwork  picked up the pattern of the reaves, and he realised their true  identity. His new chapters places Dartmoor's large-scale,  planned, prehistoric landscapes in the context of other  'co-axial' field systems that have since been found elsewhere,  and also discuss their meaning, in the light of the latest  research on the Bronze Age.

<p>This large 236 page book is well illustrated with eight color plates, 25 black and white line illustrations, 25 distribution maps and 30 charts. Dr. Owen has drawn widely on a multitude of sources including his own research to provide a comprehensive and systematic account of our present knowledge about wild geese, the life cycle and the ways in which they adapt to the changing environment. The species in their variations are fully described in the first part of the book, through summaries of the known details of for example summer and winter distribution, numbers, migration, breeding habits, food, plumage, identification and aging. Many of these aspects are illustrated by the accompanying line drawings, maps and tables. The second part of the book synthesizes and analyzes such aspects as the social and sexual behavior of geese, summer biology, population dynamics, conservation and exploitation.</p>
