'From brothel slaves to procurators, then, from the very lowest to the highest, all are here in a magnificent work of resurrectionism. It is the portrait of a Roman Britain that was neither a Good Thing, nor necessarily, by the much crueller standards of the time, a Bad Thing - just different, immeasurably and unnervingly different' Tom Holland, Spectator, The definitive history of Roman Britain In the first major narative history of the subject in more than a generation, David Mattingly brings life in Britain during four hundred years of Roman domination into vivid relief. Drawing on a wealth of new research and cutting through the myths and misunderstandings that commonly surround most perceptions of Roman Britain, "An Imperial Possession" describes a remote and culturally diverse province that required a heavy military presence both to keep its subjects in order and to exploit its resources for the empire. With his wonderful addition to the Penguin History of Britain series, "Mattingly shows . . . just how interesting life could be on the outer fringes of the Roman Empire" ("The Sunday Telegraph").
