A detailed, illustrated survey of archaeology and early history — this collection gathers the chief contents of The Gentleman's Magazine from 1731 to 1868, with a focus on ancient sites, stone circles, and early British mining. It presents notes, debates, and references that illuminate Anglo-Saxon remains, prehistoric monuments, and the spread of classical knowledge across the British isles, including Cornwall’s tin mines and Saxon settlements.

- Learn about early Anglo-Saxon artifacts, place-names, and burial evidence
- Delve into regional surveys of monuments, inscriptions, and ancient working sites
