Title: Nice little book
Review: This book was a nice little read about the life and times of Britian at the turn of the first millenium. Especially interesting was the likening to the Roman Calander, which was the center of all life and tradition. Particularly I liked the random gems of information I learned from this book: meaning of words, origins of traditions, relations between people and state.This was a very basic overview so don't expect any life-changing realizations after reading this book. But it is a quick and easy introduction to the times and gives a good overview as well as inspiration to expand upon certain topics.Keep in mind this book was written by newspaper journalists, which might explain its short and basic style. Recommended to armchair historians.
