Wulf the Saxon
by G. A. Henty
'Wulf the Saxon' Summary
Wulf, a young Saxon Thane, dedicates his life to serving his lord, Harold Godwinson, during the tumultuous period leading up to the Norman Conquest. Wulf's loyalty and courage are tested as he participates in battles, rescues shipwreck survivors, and even foils assassination attempts. He is present for pivotal events, such as the Battle of Stamford Bridge, where the English forces triumphed over a Viking invasion, and the tragic Battle of Hastings, where they fell to the Norman army led by William the Conqueror. The story follows Wulf's journey from a young warrior to a seasoned leader, culminating in a defining moment in English history. The narrative, interwoven with real historical figures and events, provides a vivid glimpse into the political and social upheavals that transformed England in 1066.Book Details
