Description:
A witty and concise look at the beginnings of English history, when the nation consolidated after clashes between the Saxons and invading Vikings--now in paperback!

In 871, three of England's four kingdoms were overrun by Vikings, the ruthless, all-conquering Scandinavian raiders who terrorized early medieval Europe. With the Norsemen murdering one king with arrows and torturing another to death by ripping out his lungs, the prospects that faced the kingdom of Wessex were bleak. Worse still, the Saxons were now led by a young man barely out of his teens who was more interested in God than fighting. Yet within a decade Alfred—the only English king known as the Great—had driven the Vikings out of half of England, and his children and grandchildren would unite the country a few years later. This period, popular with fans of television shows such as Vikings and The Last Kingdom, saw the creation of England as a nation-state, with Alfred laying down the first national law code, establishing an education system and building cities.

Saxons vs. Vikings also covers the period before Alfred, including ancient Britain, the Roman occupation, and the Dark Ages, explaining important historical episodes such as Boudicca, King Arthur, and Beowulf.

Perfect for newcomers to the subject, this is the second title in the new A Very, Very Short History of England series. If you’re trying to understand England and its history in the most informative and entertaining way possible, this is the place to start.

Great Tote Bag
Color: Navy Blue
This a really nice bag! I can't wait to go on my trip. It is just the right size, not too big, not too small. It holds a lot of things and I can reach in and see all of it. I like that it has the shoulder strap that you can either keep on or take off. The leather is so soft and looks beautiful. Seems to be really well made and I will have it for a long time and plan on using it every time we travel.

Very beautiful leather purse!
Color: Brown
I finally found THE purse that is perfect in every way. I love everything about it. It is a perfect size for me. Not too big and bulky and not too small. A medium size that holds a lot of stuff. It has double zippers on top which I really like. Comes in a dust bag, Crossbody strap is included. You can adjust the top handles to be shorter or longer. This bag is so nice, lightweight, a beautiful rich color, it is well made and smells wonderful.

Fake Leather
Color: Green
This purse is NOT REAL LEATHER!.It smells very strongly of chemicals. The lining is polyester. This is false advertising! The only leather is a small piece attached to the tag on the handle. For fake leather, the price is two or three times higher that it should be. I like the size and shape so it will keep it, but never buy such an item from Amazon/China again. Higher price for cheap quality and with false advertising is not good business or a good deal.
