Reviews

This book wholly succeeds in its task of furthering our understanding of the signals eloquent of the beliefs of the pre-Christian Anglo-Saxons, and will provide a starting-point for future attempts to understand the beliefs themselves.'--Michael Shapland Archaeological Review from Cambridge (01/01/2011)
