Richly illustrated, this title describes Anglo-Saxon monarchs, warlords and their warriors and households in Anglo-Saxon Britain, from the first post-Roman mercenaries to the Norman Conquest.

In a country fragmented by Roman withdrawal during the 5th century AD, the employment of Germanic mercenaries by local rulers in Anglo-Saxon Britain was commonplace. These mercenaries became settlers, forcing Romano-British communities into Wales and the West Country. Against a background of spreading Christianity, the struggles of rival British and Anglo-Saxon kingdoms were exploited by the Vikings, but eventually contained by the Anglo-Saxon king, Alfred of Wessex. His descendants unified the country during the 10th century, however, subsequent weak rule saw its 25-year incorporation into a Danish empire before it finally fell to the Norman invasion of 1066.

Scholars of the early Church have long known that the term 'Dark Ages' for the 5th to 11th centuries in Britain refers only to a lack of written sources, and gives a false impression of material culture. The Anglo-Saxon warrior elite were equipped with magnificent armour, influenced by the cultures of the late Romans, the Scandinavian Vendel people, the Frankish Merovingians, Carolingians and Ottonians, and also the Vikings.

In this volume, co-authors Raffaele D'Amato and Stephen Pollington access their extended knowledge to paint a vivid picture of the kings and warlords of the time with the aid of colour illustrations, rare photos and the latest archaeological research.

Coneheads
The sweater is nice looking, but whoever designed the hoodie didn’t think straight. It’s sewn so that when the hood is pulled over the head, it forms a triangular shape. It is a hoodie suited perfectly for the characters in the movie The Coneheads.

Very nice & heavy sweater.
Size: X-Large, Color: Grey
Very nice and heavy sweater. Im 220lbs and ordered an X-tra large, which is very snug/tight as this is form fitting. Depending on your build, if youre around 220LB with a little bit of stomach maybe order up to get a better fit.

Superb hoodie for mechanics

The #1 favorite hoodie of mechanics. Nice and thick which makes it very warm and durable, and a great fit. My mechanic son gets one of these every year for his birthday, and never wants any other brand.
