The book:
The Anglo-Saxons: A History of the Beginnings of England, 400-1066
By Marc Morris, 2021
A very engaging, easy-to-read history. The ordinary people of this period are invisible in this book but the author does state, in the introduction, that this particular work focuses on the [power-hungry and, for the most part, asshole] big wigs.
The beer:
Cavatica Stout
Ft. George Brewery
Astoria, Oregon, Cascadia
My go-to imperial stout. A good value that never disappoints.
