Boudica

By Richard Hingley

In AD 60, Boudica, queen of the Iceni, led a devastating revolt against Roman rule in Britain, sacking cities and sending shockwaves across the empire. *Boudica: Iron Age Warrior Queen* uses classical literature and archaeological evidence to uncover the real woman behind the legend. This book further traces her extraordinary posthumous career, examining how she has been reinterpreted through the centuries—from harridan to patriot, freedom fighter to feminist—solidifying her status as a tragic, yet inspirational, figure of unending interest.
