Reader's note

Decorative in a beautiful red leather, this stunning antique book is a gem to add to any reference library. Informative and filled with pull-out maps, this is a book which is both factual and easy to read as the following excerpt shows - For the conquest of Britain by the English our authorities are scant and imperfect. The only extant British account is the "Epistola" of Gildas, a work written probably about A.D. 560. The style of Gildas is diffuse and inflated, but his book is of great value in the light it throws on the state of the island at that time, and above all as the one record of the conquest which we have from the side of the conquered. The English conquerors, on the other hand, have left jottings of their conquest of Kent, Sussex, and Wessex in the curious annals which form the opening of the compilation now known as the "English" or "Anglo-Saxon Chronicle," - with a beautiful marbled text block, you can own a real piece of history.
