Omschrijving

""Alfred The Great"" by Eleanor Shipley Duckett is a biography of the famous Anglo-Saxon king who ruled England from 871 to 899 AD. The book provides a detailed account of Alfred's life, from his childhood and early years as a prince to his ascension to the throne and his struggles against the invading Vikings. The author explores Alfred's many accomplishments, including his military victories, his efforts to reform the legal system, and his promotion of education and literacy in England. She also delves into his personal life, including his relationships with his family and his struggles with illness. Throughout the book, Duckett provides historical context and background information to help readers understand the political and social climate of Anglo-Saxon England. She also draws on primary sources such as Alfred's own writings and contemporary chronicles to provide a nuanced and well-rounded portrayal of this important historical figure. Overall, ""Alfred The Great"" is a comprehensive and engaging biography that sheds light on one of England's most celebrated monarchs and the tumultuous era in which he lived.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
