Boudicca: Warrior Queen

Boudicca: Warrior Queen follows the rise and fall of the woman who led the most devastating revolt Rome faced in Britain.

The book reconstructs the world Boudicca inherited and the pressures that drove her into rebellion. It follows the destruction of three Roman cities, Rome’s response and the struggle that decided the fate of the revolt.

Her story did not end with defeat. Later generations reshaped Boudicca as a freedom fighter, national symbol and warning figure. Boudicca: Warrior Queen returns to the evidence behind those later versions and to the realities of power, resistance and survival in Roman Britain.
