Andrew Breeze: British Battles 493–937: Mount Badon to Brunanburh. London: Anthem Press, 2020. Pp. 150.

In the book under review, Breeze provides a chronological account of thirteen battles in early medieval Britain, starting with Mount Badon and ending with Brunanburh. By reassessing all available evidence, Breeze locates and relocates the battlefields and explains central aspects of these conflicts, in particular those which have long been contested. Since I have only limited space, I will focus on Breeze’s treatment of three important battles, viz. Mount Badon, Degsastan and Brunanburh.
