This 1910 volume, written by Oman himself, was published in as part of larger series he edited–each volume written by a historical specialist with a very definite focus. Here the author covers the Celtic, Roman and Anglo-Saxon periods of occupation. His narrative, primarily concerned with political and military history, is founded on deep research, but often reads as smoothly as fiction.
