Beginning with the earlier Viking incursions, Bartlett tells the story of the protracted 'time of terror' and the epic conflict between Cnut and Edmund Ironside that culminated in the Danish warrior's victory at Assandun in 1016.Read MoreRead Less Last few!publ £14.99now £5.99 Qty Qty123 Add to Basket CategoriesHistoryMedieval HistoryTagsEarly history: c 500 to c 1450/1500
