Review of <i>Westward on the High-Hilled Plains. The Later Prehistory of the West Midlands</i>

'Westward on the High-Hilled Plains. The Later Prehistory of the West Midlands' is the second volume of the project 'The Making of the West Midlands'. This is an ambitious six-volume series which puts together the proceedings originally presented at the seminars held, between June 2002 and June 2003, under the title the 'West Midlands Regional Research Framework for Archaeology'. This second book of the series, edited by Derek Hurst, complements the assessment and research agenda for later prehistory (Hurst 2011) more recently published in 'The Archaeology of West Midlands: a framework for research' (Watt 2011) and focuses on the Late Prehistory of the West Midland region, from the Middle Bronze age to the Late Iron Age
