BOUDICA THE TRUTH cover

In the province of Britannia during AD60. the brutality of the Roman Empire forced catastrophic retaliation by the people. Boudica, Queen of the Iceni, rose in rebellion, joined by thousands of her fellow countrymen. Together they engaged in a deadly conflict and 80,000 of these poor souls lost their lives fighting to free themselves from oppression and slavery. They were defeated but their indomitable spirit lives on in all human beings who value justice and the right to live as free people.

In this book, the story of their struggle is laid bare, falsities are swept away and orthodox history is challenged. A five year investigation provokes and offers an alternative location to Watling Street and unveils that this last great battle occurred instead in Flintshire, North Wales.

The blood-soaked earth demands that the truth be revealed and all of us must look again at this momentous act of sacrifice by our ancestors.

To the living we owe respect, but to the dead we owe only the truth. (Voltaire)
