Reviews
a scholarly work by an archeologis into his theories of what ghosts are and the creepy feelings some people experience in certain places - 'ghouls'. His notions of different planes of existence, the presence of water and the susceptibility of certain people combine with his research on past events to make an interesting work which makes the reader think on what could be.
TCL writes as a sceptic. he is the best sort of Historian because he doesn't lose his head, at any time or place. he writes in a breezy manner that keeps the reader wanting more when the book is finished.
This book is worth the read. The author is an archeologist, and presents this history of the evolution of ships from his point of view which is refreshingly different from all the other plagiarists out there.
Not into the esoterical aspects of this but having grown up near the Gogmagog hills, it's interesting to read about the excavations and about some of the folklore associated with these giants whose statues stood in the City of London until WWII. And chalk hill figures are just interesting anyway!
