Beschreibung

<p>Updated with the latest archaeological research new chapters on the most influential yet widely unrecognised people of the British isles, <b><i>In Search of the Dark Ages</i></b> illuminates the fascinating and mysterious centuries between the Romans and the Norman Conquest of 1066.</p><p>In this new edition, Michael Wood vividly conjures some of the most important people in British history such as Hadrian, a Libyan refugee from the Arab conquests and arguably the most important person of African origin in British history, to Queen Boadicea, the leader of a terrible war of resistance against the Romans.</p><p>Here too, warts and all, are the Saxon, Viking and Norman kings who laid the political foundations of England: Offa of Mercia, Alfred the Great, Athelstan, and William the Conqueror, whose victory at Hastings in 1066 marked the end of Anglo-Saxon England.</p><p>Reflecting the latest historical, textual and archaeological research, this revised and updated edition of Michael Wood's classic book overturns preconceptions of the Dark Ages as a shadowy and brutal era, showing them to be a richly exciting and formative period in the history of Britain.</p>
