In 1979 David Hey published The Making of South Yorkshire . Twenty-five years on his ideas, and the evidence that they are based upon, require rethinking. This re-written, revised and expanded book traces the history and archaeology of South Yorkshire from the Romans to the end of the Middle Ages. Structured chronologically and thematically, Hey covers such topics as the impact of Roman occupation on the region, the arrival of the Normans and their architectural legacy, the founding of religious houses such as Roche Abbey and Monk Bretton Priory, and the study of new towns' such as Doncaster and Rotherham. A detailed and interesting study of regional history. Fully illustrated throughout.
