Descriere

A study of social organization, political power, conversion to Christianity, and church building in Anglo-Saxon Yorkshire in 400-1066 AD, Kingship, Society, and the Church in Anglo-Saxon Yorkshire argues that the decision of local kin-groups to convert to Christianity transformed kingship, society, and even the physical landscape.
