Britain BC

Francis Pryor reveals that the Roman invasion of Britain was not a brutal suppression of indigenous culture but a mutually beneficial experience that the Britons may have actually instigated.

Francis Pryor sheds light on the so-called 'Dark Ages' and finds a world inhabited by Christianised, literate Britons.

Francis focuses his attention on the Anglo-Saxon invasion and argues that the huge political changes that took place in Britain at the time were caused by a shifting of allegiances within this country rather than a violent invasion from elsewhere.
