I have only read the Penguine version I'm afraid, many thanks for this.
Unfortunately, the english version appears to be in Italian, and one other version in another language.
A question though, if I may.
After this battle, I recall Agricola was recalled to Rome before he could continue with the campaign. Is that correct?
If so, how long a period after the battle was it before his recall, and what did he do after his recall?
Why did they not complete the campaign, while they had the upper hand, instead of throwing away a victory that may well have
settled the issue? What was the exact reasoning used, just that he was past his due date, or was there a real worry that such victories would undermine the present emporer(who was who to be precise?) Some people think it was still Vespasian
