Who This Author Is
Brian Fagan has enough depth here to be more than a raw catalog rollup. This page pulls together 10 catalog-linked books across 1998 to 2019, which makes it easier to separate the strongest starting points from the noisier editions. The clearest lane here leans toward Backlist browsing.
Best for readers who want a dependable place to start before opening the full catalog list. If you want the easiest first click, start with Grahame Clark and branch outward from there. UPB note: the strongest documented run here lands between 1998 to 2019; the most common copies on this page tend to come from Taylor & Francis Group and Perseus Books Group.
