Abstract
THIS book, the author explains, has been written for lovers of antiquity and lovers of the Alps. It is a popularly written account of the prehistory of Switzerland from the earliest times of which traces have been found—“Die Zeit der Bärenjager”, as the author puts it—down to the end of the iron age. While it is intended primarily to interest the visitor to the country hi its prehistoric antiquities, it will be found a convenient summary of information scattered in various publications. The lake villages naturally are treated in some detail. The book is illustrated by 82 well-selected photographs and drawings.
