Opis

Imagine being in a Roman fort with building work going on, you may have lived in a tent but what is certain there would have been the smell of cooking pizzas in the air. Outside there would be a rubbish heap where anything not needed would be dumped - including babies that weren't wanted. In and around the fort it's safe, there are many soldiers but not far away a different experience could be yours. There is an area where wolves and the warlike Celts make home. The boys in this story, one of whom is a slave, strayed into this place and were more than surprised. The sister of one of the boys wasn't allowed so much liberty. She had to stay inside the fort and learn how to cook and be a wife but she did rebel when taught how to make stuffed dormice Every day was different, sometimes it was perilous and yet the young slave was given his freedom and became Romanised as did the other Celts in Britain. There was one thing life wasn't at the time - boring.
