I love this book. It is one of my favorites of all time. It tells the story of Alfred, the only king in England to ever be called The Great. It traces his life from boyhood, through the defeat of the Viking invaders. A wonderful story of a time in history we know little about. Some people believe that Alfred holds the real place in history that storytellers have given to Arthur.
