Author
Dr Heather Sebire FSA is currently a Property Curator with English Heritage in the west of England but was formerly Archaeology Officer at Guernsey Museum. A Classics graduate from London University she worked in archaeology in London and Wessex before moving to Guernsey. During her time as Archaeology Officer at Guernsey Museum she regularly wrote and broadcast about the archaeology of Guernsey and the other Channel Islands. During her career at Guernsey Museum she became aware of the importance of the large archive of the Lukis family that was in the care of the museum and so undertook doctoral research which completed in 2004. This was followed by research to place Lukis in an international context. This book is the results of collaborative research with European colleagues on the History of Archaeology in the nineteenth century.
