Synopsis
From Julius Caesar's invasion in AD55 to the unexpected end of Roman rule and the collapse of society in the early fifth century, Roman Britain played a key part in the Roman Empire and the effects of occupation were profound and long-lasting. John Wacher's book begins with a study of the late Iron Age Britain, followed by an examination of the effects of warfare on it in the Roman period. The core of the book explores the day-to-day work and leisure of the population, with further chapters on superstitions and beliefs, and the pressures that caused the minor collapse of Roman Britain.
