Bill Dancy's New Book-Discovering Virginias Colonial Artifacts

[Ahab8]

Bill Dancy who has been a great contributor to this forum recently released a book that he has been working on for a very long time. I have been eagerly awaiting the release of this book and recently got the news that it had been released. I got 3 copies as I wanted one to read, one to keep in mint condition and one as a gift for a friend. I received my copies a couple weeks ago. I am absolutely blown away by this book. The quality is incredible and it's loaded with high quality pictures. It's very comprehensive and the depth of info covering a broad range of topics is very impressive. For anybody who loves history and the amazing relics and coins that come from these early sites this book is one you will want to add to your collection. I have a large library of reference books and this is the highest quality and most comprehensive that I have seen by a long shot. It covers everything from research, gaining permissions, pit digging, identifications and everything in between. I'm very proud of my friend Bill Dancy for what he has accomplished here.

Looking forward to getting a copy, not much colonial stuff here but sounds like a helluva read.

Bill's book is truly a high quality book, chalk full of photographs and information on detecting and our history. Thanks, Ahab, for posting the review and thanks too to Bill for a stunning addition to our hobby.
