She brings a new and highly revealing eye to the neo-romantic landscape Patrick Wright, Twentieth Century British History Kitty Hauser's significant new book...offers a valuable account of the development of aerial archaeology from its origins to the 1950s Sam Smiles Oxford Art Journal This book speaks eloquently, with intricate sophistication but not a trace of obscurity, to a multi-disciplinary audience. It is, besides an exquisite product - lavishly and pertinently illustrated, almost immaculately copy-edited and proofed (still an OUP speciality), and gorgeously written Peter Mandler, English Historical Review ...brilliantly suggestive of how historical consciousness in modern Britain can be inspirational and creative, and need not be anti-modern. Neil Cossens, History Today Books of the Year Hauser offers lively, detailed descriptions and analyses, as well as colourful and relevant historical accounts. Pamela Jane Smith, Antiquity
