Bring history back to life through Jim Hodges' historically accurate, exciting, and edifying audio recordings.

Beric, a boy chief of a British tribe, takes a prominent part in the insurrection against Rome under Queen Boadicea. These efforts are useless against the mighty Roman army. For a short time, Beric and his companions continue the fight but are ultimately defeated and taken as prisoners to Rome. Through the eyes of Beric, the listener learns of life in AD 61 Rome, the gladiatorial schools, the great fire, and life in Nero's court. This classic work will shed light upon an event much neglected in history today.

The Henty Historical Novel Collection, written by George Henty in the 1800s, covers many time periods in history throughout the world. In this collection you will learn history, geography, and vocabulary while also discovering hero characters for your children to emulate.

Read it in high-school and now re-reading (listening to) it 15 years later. Still a triumphant, adventure story detailing the life of Beric, a young man thrust into defending his homeland Briton against Rome. Despite the struggles and circumstances out of his control, young Beric proves intelligent, strategic, powerful and decisive in overcoming every seemingly fatal setback.
