THE SAXONS IN ENGLAND: a History of the English Commonwealth till the
Period of the Norman Conquest. By JOHN M. KEMBLE, M.A., F.C.P.S.
"The work throughout conveys a clearer idea of the life and character of
the Saxons in England than anything we have met with elsewhere. * * * This
account of THE SAXONS IN ENGLAND will indicate its historical and
archaeological value; but these are not its only uses. The lawyer will find
in its pages the germs of our common law, especially relating to land; and
the ethnologist or political philosopher will meet with much assistance in
his inquiries into the early social condition of mankind."--_Spectator._
