“Excuse the history. It does bring me back to being a raw youth of 17 years in England.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Not to worry - I’m a fan of bits and pieces of history. I’m pretty familiar with Boadicea and the half dozen or so variants of the spelling of her name. It’s an interesting story, what the Roman did to her and her daughters and the ensuing battles. Her tribe had success at first with their guerrilla-like tactics, but they were no match for the Roman’s organization and training.
