Description: "The British Heritage series looks at the peoples who once inhabited the British Isles, examining their lives and customs and the influences they have left behind." "This book tells us about the Romans, whose occupation of Britain had such an influence on the way we live today. Modern towns with sewage works and shopping centres were invented by the Romans. They introduced new foods, like the first sausages! The stones of Hadrian's Wall and the mosaics of Fishbourne Palace remain as evidence of their industry and art. We need only visit the swimming baths or travel a long, straight road to experience a part of our Roman heritage."--Back cover.
