Ave!

"IMHO George Shipway's "Imperial Governor" is the best historical novel about Roman Britain and the Roman army ever written.

If you agree with that statement and you own a copy of the book add your thoughts to mine. The purpose of this topic is to find out how many of you own this book. The "Imperial Governor" appreciation society!!

If you don't own a copy of the book try http://used.addall.com you can find it there. A search returned 148 copies of the book. Buy a copy, read it and review it for us. Let us see if you will agree with the opening statement."
