At the time of the Roman invasion of Britain, the site of London was an untamed, uninhabited forest, and the victorious fleet founded Londinium, not as a garrison or a fortress, but as a centre of government. This is the story of earliest London from pre-Roman times to the age of Arthur.

Then: Essays in Reconstruction

CULTURAL WRITING. MEMOIR. THEN: ESSAYS IN RECONSTRUCTION is a memoir on which John N. Morris was working at the time of his death. Morris was a poet, essayist and scholar of eighteen-century English literature. "The memoir is perhaps the most naked literary expression of ourreluctance to keep to ourselves the self we so desperately seek toidentify. These two reconciling ambitions account for the urgency thatlies behind all autobiography. They lie at the heart of John Morris'sThen, a work wisely and accurately subtitled Essays in Reconstruction"-Wayne Fields.

The port of Gloucester, nestled under Cape Ann, has been a focus for writers from Captains Courageous to The Perfect Storm. From its first settlement to its present struggles, the town has seen its share of boom and bust, expansion and retraction, loss and tragedy. The author's grandfather, Steve Ollson was lost at sea in 1935, in a dory, trawling for halibut. So who could be more personally engaged in recording its history more fully or sympathetically than John Morris? His account, with more than seventy vintage photographs and maps, an extensive glossary of fishing terms, and a detailed chronology of the Gloucester fleet, including all the fishermen and vessels lost at sea since 1693, is surely the most comprehensive record yet attempted to bring the town and its inhabitants to life. In Joe Garland's words, here's "an absolutely authoritative fishing history of Gloucester, the oldest, most dramatic, and colorful fishing port in the Western hemisphere."
