I was kind of expecting a Simon Schama-like narrative overview but this turned out to be more of an academic overview: a series of papers by the two authors that cover different aspects of the academic study of the Anglo-Saxons. It was pretty interesting and gives a good account of the current state of the research, but probably not something someone (other than me) would read for fun. I think it probably is perfect as a textbook for an introductory course on the Anglo-Saxons.
