xii, 204pp. Laminated printed light card covers. In as new condition throughout. 8vo. Mr John applies social anthropological insight to understand the type of people the Anglo-Saxons were and sets them, unusually, in a wider European context. Starting where English society begins to emerge he examines Anglo Saxon pagans, Mercian hegemony, 9th century English politics, the West Saxon conquest of England, holiness and hubris, the return of learning, the ruin of the House of Cerdic, the northern Empire and the general avoidance of chaos.
