Description

Duncan Mackay's journey into the past is hugely enjoyable. Almost 2000 years ago, Boudica led the greatest rebellion Britain has ever seen, culminating in a brutal, decisive battle. Archaeologist Mackay has spent a lifetime on the trail of Boudica, exploring the world she knew and finding its echoes and physical traces still surrounding us today. Beginning near his home in Norfolk, Mackay embarks on a journey in the footsteps of Romans and Britons, tracing the passage of two millennia that has buried the world Boudica knew. He visits villages, towns, forts and roads, uncovering the remnants of a bygone era that still hold secrets and stories of the past. Through his journey, Mackay captures the thrill and difficulties of interpreting the past, revealing the world that Boudica knew and the world we live in today.
