- Summary:
- While King Alfred has been the subject of numerous works over the last two centuries, this is the first attempt to give his son and his successor, King Edward the Elder (899-924), comparable treatment in book length form. This volume assesses that his contributions during his 24-year reign was at least as important as that of his far more famous father.
