Author Information

CAROLINE FREEMAN-CUERDEN has an undergraduate degree in Latin, a masters in Classics and Ancient History and a golden retriever. She has taught English in Brazil, Portugal and South Korea. A lifelong animal lover, she became even more interested in human relationships with animals after trying to save the lives of the two dogs who lived on her roof in South Korea (yes, the roof). Battle Elephants and Flaming Foxes is a result of her love for both Roman history and animals. She lives in the Midlands with her husband, three children, the aforementioned golden retriever, a 17-year-old cat and her very own Roman helmet. She is also the author of Veterans’ Voices: Coventry’s Unsung Heroes of the Second World War.
