This book is the result of nearly 20 years of research, though there were many distractions during that time, some of them quite substantial—like a PhD in an unrelated field. The first book-length study of bone skates, it brings together literary and archaeological evidence to provide a comprehensive description of how bone skates were made and used and fits them into the larger context of European history.
