`This booklet has served for more than twenty-five years as a useful introduction to the archaeological evidence for an `Age of Authur', and the newly revised edition shows promise of extending this legacy', (Arthuriana, Vol 14, No.1, Spring 2004) `As a general introduction to `Arthurian' archaeology for lay readers, this revised booklet still makes a serviceable guide, and Swanton and University of Exeter Press should be commended for keeping it in print.' (Arthuriana, Vol 14, No.1, Spring 2004) `This book is an excellent introduction to the early medieval southwest, as well as presenting fascinating insights into how this region and its relationship to the Arthurian myth has been understood and re-assessed through the ages. The illustrations are clear and helpful, and help to reinforce the arguments of the book. This is a thorough and intelligent piece of scholarship, but it is also very easy to read, and presents even complicated archaeological data in a way in which all readers can easily understand. For the literary scholar, historian or archaeologist, or, indeed, anyone interested in Arthur, this is an indispensable guide to the place and times of the legendary figure.', (Medieval History, Issue 2, October 2003) `It is a clearly written, informative document, and certainly something the reader of Arthurian mythology should not be without.'(SF Site, 2003) `for those wishing truth over rumour, Arthurian Sites in the West is a good start.'(SF Site, 2003) `King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table hover between history and legend, archaeology and literature(...)This is a work likely to interest people who want to encourage visits to the site',(Reference Reviews, Vol 17, September 2003)
