*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
Asser's Life of King Alfred is a historical book that was originally written in the 9th century by Asser, a Welsh monk and bishop of Sherborne. The book provides a detailed account of the life and reign of King Alfred the Great, who ruled Wessex from 871 to 899. This particular edition of the book, published in 1904, also includes the Annals of Saint Neots, which were erroneously attributed to Asser. The Annals are a chronicle of English history from the 7th to the 12th century, and provide valuable insights into the political and social climate of the time. The book is edited and translated by William Henry Stevenson, a British historian and scholar of Old English literature. Stevenson's introduction provides context for the historical period and the importance of Asser's work, as well as a critical analysis of the Annals. Overall, Asser's Life of King Alfred is an important historical document that sheds light on the life of one of England's most revered monarchs, and this edition provides additional insights into the broader historical context of the time.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
