Sixteen hundred years ago, Britain broke away from the Roman Empire and its original civilization was quickly annihilated. Towns were abandoned and society fell into chaos. At this time, a new race of people entered the ruined world. They were people from outside the northern borders of the Roman Empire, known as the Anglo-Saxons. These invaders from across the ocean entered this violent world and gradually made themselves new masters and established a new civilization. The Anglo-Saxons: The Making of England, 400-1066 draws on a wealth of original evidence to separate fact from legend and trace this turbulent history. This book shows how the early rulers of this land fought for glory and power and were almost destroyed by the Vikings; it depicts the revival of towns and trade, and the origins of institutions and customs that influence today. From it, you can see the birth of a new society, a new culture, and a unified country.
