Invaders by Bob Fowke
A bind-up of three successful titles from the series, "Romans in Britain", "Anglo-Saxons" and "Vikings". The book investigates how British society was shaped and affected by the invasion and settlement of these different people. Everyday lives during wartime and peacetime are studied, from slaves and peasants to emperors and kings. Well-known figures are included, such as Julius Caesar and Alfred the Great. The roles they and many others played in the invasion of Britain are described, together with gory details on battle tactics and the experiences of the common soldiers. It is written in the fun and lively style common to this series. It comes with black line illustrations throughout.
(The series) provides a 'way in' for less confident readers and whets the appetite of history-phobes' -- Literary & Learning. 'These bright and breezy books are packed with quirky facts and information. They work equally well as books for dipping into at random or as accessible end-to-end reads.' -- Books for Keeps.
