This completely revised and redesigned edition of Professor Barry Cunliffe’s authoritative introduction to Britain in the first millennium BC is the definitive text on the subject. Filled with color illustrations, it includes all the latest discoveries about this still-controversial era. In Europe, dramatic changes ultimately led to the emergence of Rome as a megastate; on the extremity of those developments, England underwent its own profound social and economic transformations as the prehistoric Neolithic and Bronze ages gave way to a new world. It’s an epic tale of revolution, one not repeated again until centuries later.
