Boadicea was the queen of the Iken and other British tribes.
She led a rebellion against the Roman occupiers in Britain in 60 and 61 during the reign of Emperor Nero, in which 70,000 Romans were killed. However, the rebellion was still crushed, and Boadicea committed suicide.
This book is a richly illustrated introduction to an exceptionally interesting people, known for their belligerence and conquering tendencies, but at the same time capable of enchanting craftsmanship and a mythological view of the world.
