The book provides a detailed, often visual, account of what life was like for the Roman soldiers and civilians stationed there approximately two thousand years ago. It covers aspects such as the fort's architecture, the daily routines of the soldiers, their food, clothing, and military duties. Ronald Embleton's involvement suggests the inclusion of detailed, reconstruction drawings, which bring the history to life. The book is an excellent resource for local history enthusiasts and students studying the Roman occupation of Britain.
