Synopsis
Handed down through generations of storytellers, these popular tales herald the birth of a national literature in the vernacular. From stories of saints to land grants and wills, these texts authored by kings, scribes and saints illuminate Anglo-Saxon Britain. Included in this collection are King Alfred's translation of seafarers' adventures in the Arctic, herbal remedies prescribed by Bald's Leechbook, advice to estate managers, and the love story Apollonius of Tyre, as well the famous Life of Saint Guthlac.

From the Publisher
Founded in 1906 by J.M. Dent, the Everyman Library has always tried to make the best books ever written available to the greatest number of people at the lowest possible price. Unique editorial features that help Everyman Paperback Classics stand out from the crowd include: a leading scholar or literary critic's introduction to the text, a biography of the author, a chronology of her or his life and times, a historical selection of criticism, and a concise plot summary. All books published since 1993 have also been completely restyled: all type has been reset, to offer a clarity and ease of reading unique among editions of the classics; a vibrant, full-color cover design now complements these great texts with beautiful contemporary works of art. But the best feature must be Everyman's uniquely low price. Each Everyman title offers these extensive materials at a price that competes with the most inexpensive editions on the market-but Everyman Paperbacks have durable binding, quality paper, and the highest editorial and scholarly standards.
