Anglo-Saxon
Books: History, language & culture
Our aim is to publish books on subjects
that cover all aspects of Anglo-Saxon history, language and culture.
We still have many gaps to fill; some bigger than others.
We aim to publish useful books at a reasonable
price. Most of our titles are in the 'popular academic' category
but we welcome and want to include more academic work. Our purpose
is to get a better balance between gifted professional scholars
and gifted amateurs with practical experience. Both have much
to contribute.
We prefer texts that are well written in
'plain English' but recognise that not everyone who has something
worthwhile to say is a good writer.
As a general rule we don’t publish
works of fiction.
There is currently much that is very positive
about Anglo-Saxon studies. We are fortunate to live in a period
where there is an abundance of new techniques, information and
ideas. These gifts deserve to be widely shared because they belong
to everyone and should not be kept within the confines of academia.
Our aim is to make widely known and available
information and ideas gained from both scholarly book work and
practical experience. Most people with a love of the subject appreciate
that it takes all sorts to add to the general good; there is a
place for everyone who has something useful to offer.
