"Drawing on historical documents, legends, archeology and literature, this history describes the disintegration of Roman Britain that reached a climax in the decades after the Britons overthrew Constantine's government and refused Roman rule. This study synthesizes advances in post-Roman studies since Leslie Alcock's 1971 classic Arthur's Britain"--
