| Description: |
Written by Elizabeth Alder for young adults, this book is a fictional story based upon the Anglo-Saxon Chronicles, particularly the three years leading up to the Battle of Hastings in 1066. Told from the perspective of Evyn, a Welsh Serf, the personal companion to Earl Harold of Wessex, this story is an excellent accounting of British history and culture during the middle ages. |
