The study of history has sometimes been classified as part of the humanities and at other times as part of the social sciences. It can also be seen as a bridge between those two broad areas, incorporating methodologies from both. Some individual historians strongly support one or the other classification. In the 20th century, French historian Fernand Braudel revolutionized the study of history, by using such outside disciplines as economics, anthropology, and geography in the study of global history.

More than military battles; the author discusses the very structure of the late Anglo-Saxon 'military establishment': how the fyrd was organized, how the nation called up its army and collected funding, how the elements of the fighting units worked together. Typically, much of British history focused on the events after the Norman invasion. While Anglo-Saxon history was often relatively neglected. All the more so for its military.No Flaws or Blemishes; Gift Quality. 8vo; 22.5 cm; 8.75 inches tall; 175 pages with Bibliography and Index. View more info
