Paperback. Condición: Very Good. 2002 History Press paperback edition. Light reading wear else very good condition. From the cover: To the Anglo-Saxons, the shield more than any other component of arms or armour was the mark of a warrior. By using this most symbolic of defences as a mirror of heroic society, this comprehensive and superbly illustrated book provides both a new interpretation of the evidence, and a vital insight into the art of war in the Early Anglo-Saxon period. Accessible to both the academic and the general reader, the construction of the shield is discussed in full, providing a basis for a thorough examination of how the Anglo-Saxons actually fought, at the level of both the individual and the unit. Drawing on sources ranging from Beowulf to the archaeological finds at Sutton Hoo and the Bayeux tapestry, the shield is then placed in context by a comprehensive assessment of the weapons and tactics from which it offered protection. Finally, the study considers the wider social impact of shield ownership in the period. Nº de ref. del artículo: LN-P4M6-U77X
