Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from An Illustration of the Roman Antiquities Discovered at Bath
Were we to give credit to the fanciful descriptions of Jeffery of Monmouth, and other fabling assertors of the British antiquities, we should believe, that the arts and sciences, the elegancies, luxuries, and refinements of life, were known and practised by the Britons, long before their communication with the Romans; and we might be persuaded, that even Bath itself made a considerable figure, as a city, some centuries previous to the Christian aera.
