Mr. Tony Sullivan has produced a very serviceable history of early England. Pen and Sword continue to put out quality products by authors who are passionate about their subjects.

Most of the chapters focus on political and military history, the campaigns, battles and sieges, but there is considerable information about the building of fortifications (the burhs) and towns which were essential to the military organization, tactics and strategy employed so successfully.

An essential read for anyone truly interested in Anglo-Saxon history.
