Product Description

Product Description

"A Battle Lost" tells how 10,000 British tribal warriors fell to Roman troops at Mons Graupius in AD83 in the first definitive battle fought on Scottish soil. Gordon Maxwell re-assesses Tacitus' literary record in the light of the latest archeological evidence. There is a vivid "blow-by-blow" account of the actual battle and the long quest by scholars to pinpoint the site of the battle itself is described with a breakdown of the rival claims currently put forward for the battlefield. Native society at the time and the events leading up to the battle are also outlined in this account of Scotland's first crushing defeat.
