Description

About the Book

TD Asch looks at the story of England from the accession of Edward the Elder in 899 to the death of Edgar in 975. It's the story of a royal family, and how the children and grandchildren of a legendary patriarch forged a nation out of rivalrous kingdoms.

Book Synopsis

Nobility and Fortune is the story of how, between 899 and 975, England was transformed from an idea into a kingdom. It is the story of the unification of a nation. It is also the story of a royal family, with a shadowy patriarch and a warrior princess and a dissolute reprobate. It is the story of a deeply principled archbishop and a deeply unprincipled archbishop. It is a story of heroic deeds and squalid misdeeds.

Above all, it is the story of an ongoing contest for power: between rival candidates for the throne, between Crown and Church, between north and south, and between the English and the Norse.
