The author has done a thorough job in weaving through often sparse fact and the rich, time-honoured accumulation of legend. While much of it concentrates on ancient history, basically up to around the fourteenth and fifteenth century it is interesting to read that the spirit of Celtic Britain has continued as an often potent force into the modern age.
For more about the period, we can do no better but recommend two other titles by the same author, an introductory study to much of the period covered [[The Anglo-Saxon Age: The Birth of England by Martin Wall|The Anglo-Saxon Age: The Birth of England]], and a more informal 'starter' [[The Anglo-Saxons in 100 Factsby Facts by Martin Wall|The Anglo-Saxons in 100 Facts]].
