This handy 44 page pocket pamphlet presents information about the Anglo-Saxon and Viking periods in Great Britain, from around 410-1066, in the form of a modern AtoZ Atlas. If that were all it would already be a useful tool; but that is only giving you half the picture: There are also numerous smaller maps displaying the various territories ruled over during the Anglo-Saxon settlement during the 5th-7th centuries, the Kingdoms of the 8th centuries, the Viking attacks, and land after show more Danelaw.
There are passages of text on the Vikings and the Anglo-Saxons pertaining to various subjects such as religion, war and art; and detailed charts of Anglo-Saxon and Viking town maps. They even manage to squeeze in a fair number of colour photos! It is a fantastic little publication and I highly recommend it. show less

The Archaeology of Medieval Europe: The Eighth to Twelfth Centuries AD, Vol. 1 by James Graham-Campbell
This is volume I. See Carver for Vol. 2. Lots of pictures and diagrams and easier to read than many books of this type.
