Britain Through The Ages

This series provides an insight into the history of the British Isles.

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

Roman Britain

In 55 BC, Julius Caesar's fleet dropped anchor off the coast of south-eastern England and prepared to invade. Despite brave resistance, the disciplined roman troops won the day and Britain became part of the great Roman Empire. The Romans changed the face of Britain forever. Their legacy lives on today in the English language, the British landscape, and in places  such as York and Bath with their famous Roman remains.
