excellent work on the period

Reviewed in the United States on October 28, 2002

For people just getting interested in this period of British History, this is an excellent work. The Anglo-Saxon period was a time of turbulent upheaval and change in Britain, and Fisher provides riveting accounts of the conquests of Britain by the Anglo-Saxons, then the coming age of the Normans. The books is focused on the various parts of how Britain evolved, how the warrior bands that ruled the lands were ultimately forged into a nation, influenced by kings and church.
Fish is the lecturer (professor to the Yanks!!) at the University of Cambridge, and brings to bear his talents in this concise, rather straightforward work, making it one of the best books on this period for the general reader looking for answers.

A gift for my husband...

...who is a history nerd. I had this book for over 20 years in my collection, then after hubby read it, sent it off to the charity shop... That was a mistake! It is a clear and accessible guide to the period, with plenty of contextualisation through historical and geographical references. A book for anyone who loves a bit of British history, Archaeology, or mythology and a great reference if you have formal study to do. Having bought another copy, I feel better (less guilt!) and my husband refers to it frequently.

Very Thorough

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 5, 2016

An extremely thorough coverage of the period in a single volume. I would have found it more readable with a little less detail, as I was simply reading cover to cover to get a better understandng of the period but I suspect a serious student would find it invaluable.
