"The New Stone Age" is a fascinating volume exploring the Neolithic Age, a period in the development of human technology beginning about 15,200 BC in some parts of the Middle East, and later in other parts of the world. It ended between 4500 and 2000 BC. Detailed and profusely illustrated, this book is perfect for those with an interest in human development and those looking for an introduction to the subject. Contents include: "Before the New Stone Age", "The Shell-Mound or Kitchen Midden People", "European Races", "The Coming of the Celts", "Flint Implements", "Houses", "Woman as an Inventor", "Neolithic Earthworks", "Water Supply", "Life in the Wild", etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now complete with the original text and artwork.
