Anglo Saxon Military Institutions On The Eve Of The Norman Conquest.,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Anglo Saxon Military Institutions On The Eve of the Norman Conquest (Oxford University Press Academic Monograph Reprints) (Hardcover)
I found C. Warren Holister's book difficult to read and in many places a bit confusing. I had to read chapters 3,4 and 5 twice in order to understand the Fyrd and Hide system. The Fyrd being the Army being raised by a Lord or the King, the Five Hide Unit being a system of determining the number of men a geographical entity had to provide to the Fyrd. Understanding these two subjects made the book worth reading. I enjoyed the chapter on Tactics and Strategy.
