Designed specifically to meet the demands of history at Key Stage 2, each book is illustrated with photographs, maps and diagrams.

Celts

The Romans thought the Celts were an uncivilised people and called them 'barbarians'. In fact, the Celts were successful farmers, skilled craftworkers and fierce warriors. However, it was the Romans who eventually conquered much of Europe and Britain, and many Celts ended up adopting a Roman way of life. Many others moved to the north or west of Britain where the Romans had little control. Celtic traditions continued in these areas, and their influence is still felt today, more than 1000 years later.
