Biografisk notat
David J. Breeze has been professor at the Universities of Durham, Edinburgh and Newcastle. Chairman of the International Congress of Roman Frontier Studies and former Chief Inspector of Ancient Monuments, Scotland, he has written on the Roman army and on Roman frontiers, including Hadrian’s Wall (4th edn, 2000) and Roman Frontiers in Britain (Bloomsbury, 2013).A concise examination of Roman forts in Britain from the first to the fourth century.
Expert professor David J Breeze describes the layout of a fort and how forts developed from the marching camps thrown up each night by the army on campaign to the strongholds of the Saxon Shore. Forts, fortresses, watch-towers and signal stations are in turn examined, and the defences of the fort and its annex analysed. Other chapters deal with how the Roman soldiers built the fort and the life of the men stationed there.
A gazetteer of forts worth visiting is included and there is also a select bibliography.
