'A big gold bar of delight'
SPECTATOR

Sixteen hundred years ago Britain left the Roman Empire and swiftly fell into ruin. Into this violent and unstable world came foreign invaders from across the sea, and established themselves as its new masters. In this sweeping and original history, renowned historian Marc Morris separates the truth from the legend and tells the extraordinary story of how the foundations of England were laid.

'Marc Morris is a genius of medieval narrative'
IAN MORTIMER, author of
The Time Traveller's Guide to Medieval England

'Brilliant ... Beautifully written, incredibly accessible and deeply researched'
JAMES O'BRIEN

'A much-needed book ... A gripping story, beautifully told'
BERNARD CORNWELL, author of
The Last Kingdom

'Highly informative and hugely enjoyable'
IAN HISLOP

'A vivid, sharply drawn story of seven centuries of profound political change'
THOMAS PENN, author of
The Winter King


Review

This is top-notch narrative history ... A big gold bar of delight, the special joy of which is that the florid world of Anglo-Saxon England will become known to many. As an up-to-date, accessible narrative history of the period, I know of none better. ― Spectator

[A] triumph ... Nobody will be able to resist Morris's telling of this tale, which gallops along, lit up by his love for his subject as well as his learning ... [A] magnificent retelling of our past. ―
New European

The historian Marc Morris masterfully picks out key themes and characters, from King Offa to Alfred the Great, to produce a coherent and compelling narrative of this turbulent time. ―
Pippa Bailey, New Statesman

A vivid, sharply drawn story of seven centuries of profound political change, told with wit, authority and shrewd historical judgement.
The Anglo-Saxons is a superbly clear and evocative journey through England's beginnings, and Marc Morris is a wonderful guide. ― Thomas Penn

This is a much-needed book - an accessible, eminently readable account of the peoples who first made England. It's a gripping story, beautifully told! ―
Bernard Cornwell, author of The Last Kingdom
