description: Emerging from the mists of legend at the time of the fall of Rome in the fifth century, the Saxon kings attempted to build a new kingdom around their own province of Wessex in southwestern England; strongly emphasizing a "collapse of civilization" theme, the author of this classic volume shows that Saxon England and Viking Scandinavia did not exist in isolation from the rest of Europe.
