A tale of the Norman Conquest.
A very excellent series of books dealing with the history of England
under the Saxon kings. The struggle between the English and the Danish
invaders—a struggle intensified by religious bitterness, and by the
sanguinary nature of the Danish creed—is graphically pictured. And after
the Danish and the English elements were consolidated, and the Danes
converted to Christianity, there came another alloy of foreign blood
through the Norman Conquest, the period which completes these
chronicles.
