Clearly the product of a sophisticated wealthy highly militarized society the objects beg innumerable questions about how we are to understand the people who once walked across the same landscape we inhabit who are our ancestors & yet left such a slight record of their presence. Britain after Rome" brings together a wealth of research & imaginative engagement to bring us as close as we can hope to get to the tumultuous centuries between the departure of the Roman legions & the arrival of Norman invaders nearly seven centuries later. As towns fell into total decay Christianity disappeared & wave upon wave of invaders swept across the island it can be too easily assumed that life in Britain became intolerable
- & yet this is the world in which modern languages & political arrangements were forged a number of fascinating cultures rose & fell & tantalizing glimpses principally through the study of buildings & burials can be had of a surprising & resilient place.

A richly enjoyable varied & surprising book " Britain after Rome" allows its readers to see Britains history in a quite new light."
