Description

It is Britain, AD 60. Three Roman towns are in ashes and thousands lie dead.

With her new allies, the Trinovantes and the Catuvellauni, Boudica and the Iceni march defiantly towards their enemy.They seek one last pivotal victory to drive the Romans from their land forever.

Not far away the Roman governor, Gaius Suetonius Paulinus, awaits them.

His ground is chosen, his strategy decided; if it is sound they will prevail, if not they will be massacred, losing the province forever.

Is it really revenge Boudica wants for the vile humiliations the Romans heaped on her? Or is she playing for much higher stakes? And Paulinus, can he defeat the odds to win the day?

To answer these questions, this book will re-examine events from a fresh, tactical perspective and produce a clearer picture of a revolt crushed on a newly suggested battle site, offering a new interpretation of a battle that decided 2,000 years of Britain's cultural heritage.
