The Well Tempered Garden

This is a manual to encourage those with an interest in digging, but equally it should amuse and engage those whose archaeological ambitions are limited to turning the pages of this book. It is the story of a fantasy dig the readers undertake in their back garden. Eventually they come down on the remains of a Roman villa. What began as a piece of keyhole archaeology is, by the end of the book, a massive site complete with mechanical diggers and dumper trucks.
