Roman Britain is an appealing and highly visual guide to the history, society, art and culture of Britain when it was a province of the Roman Empire. 2010 marks the 1600th anniversary of the Roman departure of Britain and this brand new book includes stunning photography of recently discovered Roman finds based on the latest research. Spanning more than ten centuries and ranging from length and breadth of ancient Britain, this lively history evokes a vivid sense of life in Roman times - for both rich and poor, for Romans and native Britons, city and country dwellers, Christian monks and Druid priests and every conceivable rank of Roman soldier.
For nearly four centuries, from AD 43 to 410, Britain was a province on the outer edge of the Roman Empire. It developed a distinctly Romano-British culture and way of life, reflected not only in its celebrated Roman baths, forts, roads and villas, but also in everyday language, customs and beliefs that endure to this day. Drawing on archaeological finds, ancient written sources and the latest research on surviving artefacts - Roman Britain brings the ancient past graphically to life.
