Knowing the Anglo-Saxons was the goal of giving this audiobook a try. It is a skillfully assembled collection of essays. The narration is fabulous. At the end of it I feel that I know who the Anglo-Saxons were and are a little better, and who they weren’t much more so.
Would have liked more information on the continental origins of the Anglo-Saxons end
their residual ancestors, but that maybe that’s for another day.
