"With a foreword by Chris Packham, Living in the Ice Age takes you on a journey through life in Ice Age Europe, and the things you'd need to know to survive. Not only does this lovely little book introduce the uninitiated, it also presents new questions for those more familiar with life in the Ice Age. Be prepared to be surprised by your answers." Simon Norton (2024): World Archaeology #126 "[A] short, accessible publication aimed at younger readers... the book offers an informative overview of many elements of life 40,000 to 12,000 years ago (particularly those related to children and families), busting old myths, and introducing an array of archaeological methods and concepts in a fun and engaging way. Helpfully illustrated with colourful maps, reconstruction drawings and photos, this book will doubtless capture the imaginations of younger readers and those new to the subject."
