very good detail in describing many things, including how sub-romans (britons) were organized, to how saxons preferred to fight on foot and in rare cases they used cavalry, they hurled their spears instead of couching them etc and so on.

Yep, nice book but much outdated stuff. Still interesting to read, just keep in mind many discoveries and works have took place since!
