About The Author

Duncan Mackay

Duncan Mackay is an archaeologist with a love of landscape and stories. He worked in archaeology for nearly two decades, predominantly with the University of Cambridge Archaeological Unit, leaving full-time work to be a stay-at-home dad and pursue his own research. Duncan lives in Norfolk with his wife, son, soppy black Labrador and overexcited Cockapoo, indulging his passion for walking marshes and deserted beaches, and hurling himself into freezing rivers at dawn.

Echolands is his first solo book.
