Neil Oliver was born in Renfrew in Scotland. He studied archaeology at the University of Glasgow and worked as an archaeologist before training as a journalist. Since 2002 he has presented various TV series including Coast (in the UK and in the antipodes) A History of Ancient Britain, Vikings and Sacred Wonders of Britain. He is the author of several non-fiction books including the bestsellers The Story of Britain in 100 Places, The Story of the World in 100 Moments and Wisdom of the Ancients, and one novel. He lives in Stirling with his wife, three children and two Irish wolfhounds.
Fascinating...This reminds us of the great, enduring importance of
looking back at the past in order to better understand the present
and help us in the future. A must-read this year.
*This England*
Oliver continues to write his beautiful, lyrical stories, and
refuses to be anything other than himself. Maybe the people who
persist in throwing ideological toilet paper at him could learn
something from that. Meanwhile, for the rest of us, the best way to
see Neil Oliver as he really is, is to read his books.
