In this study of Anglo-Scottish relations and of border society, the contributors examine the infrastructure beneath societies which were permanently  organized for war'. They draw on Anglo-Scottish archival material to argue that the issues which feature in other frontier societies - acculturation and the creation of special institutions - appeared also on the Anglo-Scottish frontier. The book uses the celebrated Battle of Otterburn as a starting-point for a major reassessment of border society, challenging the view put forward in popular ballads that the borders were isolated and self-contained.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45236588314775,"sku":"9781138006676","price":4980.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781138006676.webp?v=1769213657","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/war-and-border-societies-in-the-middle-ages-9781138006676","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
