Will surely become a go-to guide for those seeking to represent authentic medieval warfare of the period in all its facets, as well as those who want to authoritatively critique such descriptions. MEDIEVALLY SPEAKING The most complete, authoritative insight into the military affairs of Alfred's rule and perfect for a thorough analysis of the warfare that he waged. EUROPEAN REVIEW OF HISTORY As far as medieval warfare is concerned, this book hits all the nails on the head; another excellent (...) title in Boydell's 'Warfare in History' series. HOBILAR An important book. SOUTHERN HISTORY Students of Anglo-Saxon culture and warfare will find cause to grab Alfred's Wars off the shelf time and again. It is the most comprehensive treatment of its subject yet published. JOURNAL OF MILITARY HISTORY A remarkably inclusive, detailed and wide-ranging account of the state of current scholarship on the subject of later Anglo-Saxon warfare (and) an indispensable overview of historical approaches. MEDIEVAL ARCHAEOLOGY As thorough as one could possibly hope, and should become a standard point of reference for future research and teaching on Anglo-Saxon warfare. Essential. CHOICE In respect of the areas covered, the depth of discussion and the review of previous scholarship, this book has few equals. For the study of early medieval warfare, this book provides an exceptionally useful starting point and deserves a place on the bookshelf of every student of the period. Highly recommended!
