Hereward (Illustrated History Paperbacks)

by VictorHead (Author)

Synopsis

In 1070, England lay prostrate under the heel of William the Conqueror. From the enveloping gloom of Norman oppression only one last centre of resistance remained - the Isle of Ely in the fens of East Anglia. From this refuge emerged a leader who struggled against enormous odds to defend his Saxon homeland; a man whose achievements cast him in the heroic mould, yet whose very existence has until now remained a mystery. Victor Head delves beneath the myth to discover the truth about the legendary 'Hereward the Wake'. He presents the evidence and discusses the various versions and interpretations of the story.
