Hereward by Victor Head
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.| SKU | Unavailable |
