Ideal for undergraduates, this survey of medieval Britain is a coherent narrative of events between the two great invasions from continental Europe. It is unique both for its broad historical perspective and for its wide geographic coverage: it spans the 'long' millennium from the first century BC through the Norman conquest and covers events across the whole of Britain, from Cornwall to the Shetlands. Edward James provides the European context for events in England while also examining the many ways Britain differed from the rest of Europe. Students of medieval Europe will find his book an invaluable synthesis. |
About the AuthorEdward James is Professor of Medieval History, University College Dublin. PrizesWritten in an engaging style by a highly regarded historian The first book to look at Britain, throughout this period, within a European context Explains reasoning behind the interpretation of evidence rather than presenting interpretation as 'fact'
