Farming in the First Millennium AD : British Agriculture between Julius Caesar and William the Conqueror
Editorial Reviews
Review
'... a welcome sequel to Peter Fowler's (1983) classic earlier work, The Farming of Prehistoric Britain ... A particular strength is the discussion of hunter-gatherer strategies in a world of farmers, with effective case studies ...' Antiquity
'... the read becomes compulsory ... the author succeeds in his intention to provide a survey, especially welcome for its British perspective, aimed at general readers and students, and it is written in a way that should stimulate further reading ... The book will continue to be used and argued about for a considerable time.' Landscape History
Review
"[A]n example of a balanced scholarly work that successfully maintains its readability while fulfilling its stated objective as a textbook intended for undergraduates and general readers...capably traverses difficult scholarly territory and presents an engaging general picture of British agriculture over a thousand-year period." Bryn Mawr Classical Review
