Martin's Hundred

New York, NY: Alfred A. Knopf, 1982. 1st Edition; 1st Printing. Hardcover. ISBN: 0394507282. B&W and Color Illustrations; This book is in Very Good+ condition and has a Very Good+ dust jacket. The book and its contents are in generally clean, bright condition. The spine ends of the book covers have some very beginning bumping. The text pages are clean and bright. There is a long previous owner's gift notation on the reverse of the front endpaper. The dust jacket is mostly clean and bright, but has a couple of small nicks and semi-closed tears. "Noël Hume's work is noted for the effort to put the social life and economic overtones of history into the discoveries unearthed through archaeological examination — thus: historical archaeology. When he began his career, "historical archaeology did not exist as an academic discipline. It fell to Noël Hume's books, lectures, and television presentations to help bring it to the forefront of his profession, where it stands today," the University of Virginia Press said in its fall 2010 catalogue, which features his autobiography, A Passion for the Past: The Odyssey of a Transatlantic Archaeologist.
