Living Underground by David Kempe

This is the first comprehensive survey of troglodytes and other cave dwellers throughout the world from Neanderthal Man to the present day. Mr. Kempe, of the British Museum of Natural History, examines why people have chosen to live in caves or natural shelters, the nature of life and the distinctive characteristics of the dwellings, and skillfully weaves these strands into a fascinating history of man's underground life.
