                        About the Book
In AD 60 and 61, a Celtic queen called Boudica led a rebellion of her ancient Britannic tribe, resulting in three cities being destroyed, thousands of her enemies slaughtered, and a hundred-thousand of her own followers killed in a mighty battle against the occupying Roman forces. The earliest record of this woman appears in the writings of two ancient historians, whose accounts vary, leaving modern readers with a mythic image of that woman. Primary-source records of her anti-Roman revenge are limited to Tacitus and Dio Cassius works.
