Product Description
The life journey of King Oswald, the first Overlord Godly King. A must for any early learning historian for the period around AD 640. Northumbria stretches from the west coast of Scotland, from Aberdeen, in the north to the Humber in the south of England. Oswald was overlord over the Picts and Irish in todays Scotland,and the kings of Lindsey, Kent and Wessex, after the battle of Heavenfield, against Cadwallon of Wales and Penda of Mercia. The book contains Matthew, Mark, Luke and John carpet pages from the Lindisfarne Gospels, and a painting of Oswald in the twelfth century from Durham Cathedral. There are also photographs of Bamburgh Castle, Holy Island and the Roman Wall today. The story is written in a style for younger thinking people and is written in an historical fiction form.
