Much of Roman Chester has been lost through post-Roman dismantling and "recycling" of building materials, though excavations over recent years have added substantially to our knowledge of the town known as Deva. In this companion volume to , David Mason traces the early history of this military stronghold: the construction and early years of the fort, and the development of the garrison town and the surrounding civilian settlement. This is essentially the first study to focus solely on Roman Chester, other than excavation reports, and it represents a well-written informative history of the rise, burgeoning and decline of the Roman town and its inhabitants.
