ROMAN SCOTLAND NEW EDTN: Frontier Country (History Maker Bios) - Softcover

Part of the Historic Scotland series and with a wide readership in mind, this book examines the impact of the three periods of Roman occupation on the country and its people under the governorship of Agricola. Looking at some of the best preserved monuments in the empire, on its north-west fringe, the author also considers reasons for eventual withdrawal and adds a chapter on external relations with Rome. The lively text is accompanied by specially commissioned reconstruction drawings of military installations.
