From the reviews:“The volume covers a wide range of topics, temporalities and geographical extents, from Austrian fifteenth century pocket sundials to the modern ruins of the AIR studios on the Caribbean island of Montserrat. … This volume is also a useful addition to the corpora of movement studies in archaeology in that it extends the reach of this research to the recent past. … it is a well-produced volume with a good number of quality illustrations. It will serve the interests of historical archaeologists well … .” (Alice J. Rogers, Archaeological Review from Cambridge, Vol. 28 (2), 2013)
