Boudicca: Warrior Queen follows the rise and fall of the woman who led the most devastating revolt Rome ever faced in Britain.
Drawing on Roman accounts and archaeological evidence, the book pieces together the world she inherited, the betrayal that pushed her into rebellion, and the campaign that set fire to three Roman cities. It traces her strategy, her alliances, and the scale of destruction that forced the empire to reconsider its control of its most northern province. The story also explores how Boudicca was remembered and reshaped by later centuries—from medieval chroniclers to Victorian nationalists—each reinventing her for their own purposes. Boudicca: Warrior Queen presents a clear, accessible account of a figure often buried under myth, returning her to the turbulent landscape she knew and the decisions she made under extreme pressure.
