The Roman Conquest of Britain in AD 43 was one of the most important turning points in the history of the British Isles. It left a legacy still discernible today in the form of archaeological remain, road networks, land divisions and even language. In his much-acclaimed trilogy, now up-dated and revised, Dr Webster builds up a fascinating and lively picture of Britain in the first century AD and discussed in detail the various types of evidence and the theories based upon it. Caratacus' last stand against the Romans has a central place in the folklore of the Welsh Marches, where many a hill is claimed to be the site of the famous battle. But, as Graham Webster shows, this epic encounter was not only real history but also part of an intricate ten-year series of campaigns conducted after the initial conquest of Britain. By interpreting the ancient historical accounts and piecing together the masses of archaeological evidence, Dr Webster has brilliantly reconstructed this central period of the Claudian Conquest of Britain and its immediate aftermath.

Blood of Rome: Caratacus is the compelling story of the Roman invasion of Britain in AD 43, told from both perspectives. It is the first book in the Blood of Rome series that will take the reader back in time, where they will experience Britannia at war against overwhelming odds and against a far superior enemy. Only one man chooses to stand against such a foe and lead his people and other tribes against the might of Rome, Caratacus. Brutality, betrayal, love, lust and greed clash as brothers go to war against each other in this true story based on historical fact. Told in a way that exposes for the first time all the elements that combined to ensure a fight to the death between two warrior cultures. One deemed as uncivilised and barbaric, the other, the largest Empire in the known world who has already failed twice before to bring the Britons to heal. Caratacus fights a war that he didn't start, he didn't want and was unprepared for but as his forefathers fought the Roman Legions, he too will be forced to take up the sword against them in a battle that is to last five times longer than that of even the warrior Queen Boudicca. This is his story, Blood of Rome: Caratacus.

#1 NEW RELEASE ON AMAZON The Great Roman Empire was no stranger to rebellions, but who were the rebels behind these lost causes, and what fueled their brazen plights? Despite their many differences, the rebels of the Roman Empire had one thing in common: all were Romans, or onetime Roman allies, who attempted to overthrow Roman rule within the bounds of the Roman Empire. Many of these rebels succeeded in humbling Rome, for a time. But in the end, Rome always prevailed, occasionally through the ineptitude of the rebels, but more often through the skills of Roman generals who rose to the occasion after others had failed. Rome’s greatest rebels took on many forms—including royalty, enslaved people, foreigners serving in the Roman army, over-ambitious Roman governors, a handful of genuine freedom fighters—but all had the courage and audacity to oppose the greatest empire the world had known to that time. These are their stories . . .

In this book, David Braund offers a significantly different perspective upon the history of Roman Britain. He concentrates upon the literary evidence, which has been studied to a lesser extent than archaeology in recent years. Close attention to the Greek and Roman sources enables the construction of a new approach to Roman Britain, its history and its archaeology. For the first time, monarchy is identified as a key issue in the history of Roman Britain.
