Review of "Aelfred's Britain" on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

A bit disjointed - I think it would have been helpful to have the years covered at the top of each page. I read the Kindle version which meant the maps were awkward to use. I was pleased that it didn't just focus on Wessex - many books about the period fetishise Wessex to the detriment of the other parts of Britain.
