Roman Britain and the English Settlements

Although this is an old edition (1936!), this book on Roman Britain and the early English kingdoms, is, as they say, an oldy but a goody. Very well written and researched, and with abundant detail from leading Roman and Anglo-Saxon scholars of the day, this text is still a great read for those interested in the subject of the collapse of Roman Britain and the early development of the "English". However, much of the information contained here has been (but only recently)superceded by modern scientific research on what happened in Britain after the Roman administration left Britannia in 410AD. Still a good read for history buffs though.
