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 archæological 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.
