Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Writing Archaeology, third edition, provides a concise and engaging guide to writing about archaeology in many formats from America?s best-known author of popular and academic archaeology books.
Utilizing decades of experience, Brian Fagan provides a straightforward introduction to writing archaeology for all kinds of audiences, from undergraduates and professional archaeologists to the interested public. This third edition is attentive to the recent focus on public and community archaeology, the burgeoning of digital publications and the emergence of artificial intelligence. It sets out how to get started, how to use the tools of skilled writers to make archaeology come alive for readers, and how to get your work revised and finished. It shows how to get your work accepted by publishers and what to expect from this experience. Dealing with several genres of popular publication, articles, columns, blogs, trade books and textbooks, it highlights the differences and similarities in the writing and the publication processes for each type.
For beginning writers and people who have been writing for years, this book speaks directly to those interested in penning for a broad public and is an indispensable aid for the writing careers of all archaeologists and their students.
