A most enjoyable read 27 Mar 2011

Format:Kindle Edition
Possibly one of the more detailed histories of England. Once used to the 18th century language and sentence structure I found it an enthralling read. Much more detailed than any other history Ive read. Now I just need to find Volumes 2-6 !!!!

Without doubt the most enjoyable and interesting historical book I have read and will re-read. I cannot recommend it highly enough. How one man researched and amassed the wealth of detail in this tome is amazing. How he creates a page turner you don't want to put down is also a feat. You may think you do not like history. Read this and change your mind. There is something for everyone in this book. Treat yourself.

Great book! 3 Nov 2010
Format:Kindle Edition
Great book so far, although a bit rushy when explaining all the various Saxon successions. A recommended reading

All ancient writers agree in representing the first inhabitants of Britain as a tribe of the Gauls or Celtae, who peopled that island from the neighbouring continent. &quote;

[MN The Britons.] The curiosity, entertained by all civilized nations, of inquiring into the exploits and adventures of their ancestors, commonly excites a regret that the history of remote ages should always be so much involved in obscurity, uncertainty, and contradiction. &quote;

The southern Britons, in this extremity, applied for assistance to Arthur, Prince of the Silures, whose heroic valour now sustained the declining fate of his country [x]. This is that Arthur so much celebrated in the songs of Thaliessin, and the other British bards, and whose military achievements have been blended with so many fables, as even to give occasion for entertaining a doubt of his real existence. &quote;
