This book, chronologically the first of the five volume Britain Before The Conquest series, follows the path of man's occupation of Britain from the scattered pockets of habitation in the earliest Palaeolithic period through to his growing domination of the landscape and his capacity to mold his environment evident in the late Bronze Age. The Coming of Rome by John Wacher- Book # 3 in series (1979). The Coming of Rome, first published in 1979, examines some basic features of Roman Britain: the cities, the towns, and the monuments of an urban culture. J.S. Wacher considers the evidence, mainly from inscriptions, of the people who inhabited or visited Britain during approximately the first two centuries of Roman rule. The Roman conquest of Britain and the progressive extension of Roman control marked a dramatic transformation of British society. Although there was much contact between pre-Roman Britain and the Continent, the advent of Romanization meant incorporation into a much larger economic system. But Britain stood on one of the most distant frontiers of the Roman world, and the Romano-British society which gradually evolved was thus distinctive. Profusely illustrated throughout, The Coming of Rome will appeal to historians and archaeologists, as well as the general reader interested in some of the most formative centuries of Britain's development. Anglo-Saxon England by Lloyd and Jennifer Laing- Book # 5 in series (1990, second printing). Covers the most enigmatic period in the development of Anglo-Saxon takes the history and archeology of Britain from the fifth century AD through to 1066. The book is illustrated throughout.
