Abstract

IT is nine years since the second edition of Prof. Sollas's “Ancient Hunters “appeared. The present book, although substantially the same in structure as the last, has been revised and brought up-to-date. New matter has been added involving the lengthening of the work by more than a hundred; pages and the addition of several illustrations. In a rapidly developing subject like prehistory it is impossible to say that the last word has been written, but it can safely be prophesied that, in this revised and up-to-date form, “Ancient Hunters “will be for many; years to come an essential feature on every specialist's bookshelf, and will remain the best book to recommend to the thoughtful non-specialist reader interested in the subject.

Ancient Hunters and their Modern Representatives.

By Prof. W. J. Sollas. Third edition. Pp. xxxvi + 697. (London: Macmillan and Co., Ltd., 1924.) 25s. net.
