What is Boudicca about?

Two thousand years ago, Britain faced invasion by the powerful Roman army. Boudicca, queen of the Iceni, watched as her people were mistreated and their lands were seized. Determined to resist, she united several tribes and led a dangerous revolt against Rome. This illustrated biography explores Boudicca’s life, the conflict that followed, and the very different ways Romans and Britons lived, organised their societies and treated one another. It also reveals the courage, suffering and consequences of rebellion in ancient Britain.
