Later Roman Britain, first published in 1980, charts the end of
Roman rule in Britain and gives an overall impression of the
beginning of the so-called 'Dark Ages' of British history, the
transitional period which saw the breakdown of Roman administration
and the beginnings of Saxon settlement. Stephen Johnson traces the
flourishing of Romano-British society and the pressures upon it
which produced its eventual fragmentation, examining the province's
barbarian neighbours and the way the defence was organised against
the many threats to its security. The final chapters, using mainly
the findings of recent archaeology, assess the initial arrival of
the Saxon settlers, and indicate the continuity of life between
late Roman and early Saxon England. Later Roman Britain gives a
fascinating glimpse of a period scarce with historical sources, but
during which changes fundamental to the formation of modern Britain
began to take place.
