Publisher's description:

Tells the epic history of life in Britain, since man's very first footsteps. Drawing on various techniques of investigation, this book describes times when Britain was so tropical that man lived alongside hippos and sabre tooth tiger, times so cold we shared this land with reindeer and mammoth, and times when we were forced to flee altogether.
