The power, sophistication, unity and wealth of the late Anglo-Saxon
state have been underestimated. The shadow of defeat in 1066, and
an assumption that the Normans brought about strong government and
a unification that had not previously been there, has prevented
many of the remarkable features of Anglo-Saxon society from being
seen. In The Anglo-Saxon State James Campbell shows how strong,
unified and well-governed Anglo-Saxon England was and how numerous
and wealthy were its inhabitants. Late Anglo-Saxon England was also
a country with a political class considerably wider than just the
earls and thegns. William Stubbs's vision of Anglo-Saxon England as
a country with real representative institutions may indeed be truer
than that of his denigrators. James Campbell's work demands the
rethinking of Anglo-Saxon history.
