A must-read if you want to know the early English
Pagan books are two a penny these days. Well all right, they're generally a lot more than a penny, but you get my drift.

In my opinion, if you want to know how the Early English worshipped their gods in the days before St Augustine and his merry band of God-botherers came over and persuaded the King of Kent of the necessity of Real Politik -- sixth century Vatican style -- then this is the book for you.

There have been other excellent studies;Hilda Davidson, and Prudence Jones and Nigel Pennick have produced historical studies on the pagan beliefs of Europe; Brian Bates has given us a Saxon shaman (with a nod to Carlos Castenada); and Jan Vries has produced some intense workbooks for those who really do what to get serious about it all....

But for my money, this little study is masterpiece.
It's crisp, concise, and to the point.
