{"product_id":"britannia-the-failed-state-stuart-laycock-9780752446141","title":"Britannia - The Failed State: Tribal Conflict and the End of Roman Britain","description":"Attempts to understand how Roman Britain ends and Anglo-Saxon England begins have been undermined by the division of studies into pre-Roman, Roman and early medieval periods. This groundbreaking new study traces the history of British tribes and British tribal rivalries from the pre-Roman period, through the Roman period and into the post-Roman period. It shows how tribal conflict was central to the arrival of Roman power in Britain and how tribal identities persisted through the Roman period and were a factor in three great convulsions that struck Britain during the Roman centuries. It explores how tribal conflicts may have played a major role in the end of Roman Britain, creating a 'failed state' scenario akin in some ways to those seen recently in Bosnia and Iraq, and brought about the arrival of the Anglo-Saxons. Finally, it considers how British tribal territories and British tribal conflicts can be understood as the direct predecessors of the Anglo-Saxon kingdoms and Anglo-Saxon conflicts that form the basis of early English History.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stuart Laycock\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0752446142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780752446141\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Tempus\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/07\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.70h x 6.70w x 0.80d","brand":"Stuart Laycock","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43947083628799,"sku":"9780752446141","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fd012aa9-6819-49dd-ae4d-53b660b23703.jpg?v=1681516613","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/britannia-the-failed-state-stuart-laycock-9780752446141","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
