This book presents an important and up to date synthesis of Roman Yorkshire. Patrick Ottaway has spent much of his career as a field archaeologist in York and this volume thus provides an up to date and well informed description of archaeological as well as textual evidence. Its comprehensive coverage will makes this a key work for all interested in the subject, and a starting point for any future study. The location of the area at the interface of the military zone and civil province of Roman Britain also makes Ottaway's study an invaluable account of issues of broader significance within Roman studies.
