Hadrian's Wall, From Construction to World Heritage Site

Hadrian's Wall is the largest, most spectacular historic monument in Britain. Nothing else approaches its vast scale: a land wall running 73 miles from east to west, and a sea wall stretching at least 26 miles down the Cumbrian coast. This book traces the concept, construction and purpose of the wall, how it was built, who worked on it and the lives lived on and around it.
