This is a book about the Celtic figure Hereward, also know as Hereward the Wake. He was an Anglo-Saxon nobleman who led local resistance to the Norman conquest of England. He lived on the Isle of Ely in eastern England and was born in 1032. Much of his existence is shrouded in mystery. He is known well in folklore and immortalised in myth. Victor Head, the author tries to clear much of the mystery and explain what Hereward accomplished. I have been the only owner. The dust jacket has just a few small dimples on the edges. The book itself is MINT condition. Price is $20.
