Can I read The Anglo-Saxon Shield on EtoBox?

The Anglo-Saxon Shield by Ian Stobbs Stephenson is a book available to read on EtoBox.

What is The Anglo-Saxon Shield about?

For the Anglo-Saxons the shield, more than any other piece of armour or weaponry, epitomised the warrior. Using the full range of archaeological, representational, literary and comparative sources, Ian Stephenson describes both the construction, decoration and use of their shields and is then able to throw considerable new light on the art of war in the Anglo-Saxon period. The book also contains a complete list of Anglo-Saxon cemeteries.
