THE LANTERN BEARERS

By Rosemary Sutcliff

Synopsis

The Saxon raiding party did a thorough job when they attacked the farm - by morning it was a smoking ruin and Aquila's father lay dead alongside the household servants. Bitter years followed for Aquila as he sought to revenge his father - and to keep alight the lantern of Roman civilization.
