  A bind-up of three successful titles from the series, Romans in Britain , Anglo-Saxons and Vikings . The book investigates how British society was shaped and affected by the invasion and settlement of these different people. Everyday lives during wartime and peacetime are studied, from slaves and peasants to emperors and kings. Well-known figures are included, such as Julius Caesar and Alfred the Great. The roles they and many others played in the invasion of Britain are described, together with gory details on battle tactics and the experiences of the common soldiers. It is written in the fun and lively style common to this series. It comes with black line illustrations throughout.
