"To chronicle the intellectual life of Grahame Clark (1907-1995) is to participate in the history of the discipline of archaeology, which Clark - almost single-handedly at first - transformed from an antiquarian pastime based largely on artifact classification into a sophisticated study of the human past based on collaborations among scientists from many disciplines.
Delving into Clark's major publications and personal archives, and drawing on dozens of interviews with Clark's former colleagues and students, noted archaeology writer Brian Fagan, himself a former student of Clark's at Cambridge University, assesses Clark's pioneering efforts in economic and environmental prehistory.
To accurately study the man, Brian Fagan focuses not just on Clark's published works; he also examines Clark's personal archives and draws on dozens of interviews with Clark's colleagues and students."--BOOK JACKET.
