Christopher Webster

Egbert Bretwalda (Nordic Heroes, #8) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Egbert was king of Wessex from c. 770 to 839. His achievement is that he brought about the unification of England under the house of Wessex, and paved the way for the successes of Alfred the Great (his grandson). Historical information is thin on the ground, so I have elaborated many scenes from my own imagination, hoping to bring to life this underappreciated Anglo-Saxon monarch.

Autorenporträt

Christopher Webster was brought up in Conisbrough, Yorkshire, which is well-known for its magnificent castle. The castle and its link with England's founding father, Hengest, inspired his interest in history. He studied English at Leeds University and was an English teacher for many years. His first publication was Poetry Through Humour and Horror (Cassell). This was followed by many more educational publications, including the best-selling 100 Literacy Hours (Scholastic). He has also published a wide range of fiction, drama and poetry culminating in his "masterpiece" pentalogy, English Dawn and its sequel, The Grail Delusion. He is currently retired and living his dream, which is to be a full-time writer (though it is sometimes a nightmare when the words won't flow!). If you enjoyed this book, please consider writing a review.
