TO THE READER
Down with the Romans! is a story. It is based on history. The main events in the book really happened. But the details and some of the people are made up. I hope this makes the story more fun to read. I also hope that Down with the Romans! will get you interested in real history. When you have finished, perhaps you will want to find out more about Roman Britain!
