About this title:

Synopsis: The studies in this book examine and illuminate the Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman military institutions that supported and shaped the conduct of war in northwestern Europe in the central middle ages. Taken together they challenge received opinion on a number of issues and force a profound reconsideration of the manner in which the Normans and their adversaries, Anglo-Saxons, Danes, Angevins and the Welsh, prepared for and waged war. Contributors: RICHARD ABELS, BERNARD BACHRACH, KELLY DEVRIES, JOHN FRANCE, C.M. GILLMOR, ROBERT HELMERICHS, NIELS LUND, STEPHEN MORILLO, MICHAEL PRESTWICH, FREDERICK SUPPE.

Review: This latest welcome addition to Boydell's excellent Warfare in History list...displays a clear cohesion around a perennially fascinating central theme. A stimulating and important collection that adds significantly to our understanding of Norman warfare. ENGLISH HISTORICAL REVIEW Commendable for its plethora of fresh insights and arguments... all are worthwhile contributions to knowlege or debate. HISTORY
