Book Description Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Starting AD 400 (around the time of their invasion of England) and running through to the 1100s (the 'Aftermath'), historian Geoffrey Hindley shows the Anglo-Saxons as formative in the history not only of England but also of Europe. The society inspired by the warrior world of the Old English poem Beowulf saw England become the world's first nation state and Europe's first country to conduct affairs in its own language, and Bede and Boniface of Wessex establish the dating convention we still use today. Including all the latest research, this is a fascinating assessment of a vital historical period. Children of Beowulf, Warriors of God, Pioneers in Europe Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781845291617
