Fosse Way - Britons and Romans in Somerset

'Somerset's leading working archaeologist', Peter Leach brings 30 years of experience of digs throughout Somerset to this readable and well illustrated study of the origins of human settlement in the county. The curious Roman road, The Fosse Way, acts as a core from Ilchester, through Shepton Mallet to Beacon Hill and beyond. Along the way Peter examines the furore around the discovery of a small silver Amulet, originally thought to be the earliest Christian find in the county but now exposed as a very clever hoax.
