LARK (verb): to get out and about, to explore the world around us and to discover the little treasures hiding in plain sight.We think, of course, of mudlarking but there is also beachlarking, fieldlarking or even simply exploring your own home with fresh eyes.In this beautiful field guide, Lara teaches us how to lark for ourselves. There are maps and charts, tips and lists, and colour illustrations throughout to help identify finds. From tide tables for mudlarkers to a flint guide for fieldlarkers, this book is richly informative and yet small enough to pop in a pocket. Like a journal it invites you to interact - to make notes and record finds along the way.If Lara Maiklem's first book was a glimpse into a hidden world, with this field guide she shows us how we can discover it for ourselves.

The international bestseller that mesmerizingly charts quixotic journeys through London's past, Mudlark thrills Anglophiles and history lovers alike. Long heralded as a city treasure herself, beloved "Mudlark" Lara Maiklem tirelessly treks along the Thames' muddy shores, unearthing a myriad of artifacts and their stories-from Roman hairpins and perfectly preserved Tudor shoes to the clay pipes that were smoked in riverside taverns. Seamlessly interweaving reflections from her own life with meditations on the art of wandering, Maiklem ultimately delivers a treatise "as deep and as rich as the Thames and its treasures" (Stanley Tucci).

A quixotic journey through London's past, Mudlark plumbs the banks of the Thames to reveal the stories hidden behind the archaeological remnants of an ancient city.
