Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book takes the reader on a journey exploring the evolution of the nations of England and Scotland. It traces the parallel development of the two nations, each facing its own internal struggles and competing with its neighbours. The book begins with the conversion to Christianity and highlights the pivotal role the Scoto-Irish Church played in bringing Christianity to Northumbria. The author casts light on the great Northumbrian kings of the seventh century, such as Ethelfrith, Edwin, Oswald, and Oswy, who established supremacy over the Britons and extended their rule as far as the Firth of Forth and the Irish Sea. The book elucidates how the ebb and flow of Pictish power and the Danish and Norwegian invasions shaped the political landscape of the region. It shows how the acquisition of Lothian by the Scottish King set the stage for the eventual dominance of English language, culture, and governance in Scotland and the subordination of the Gaelic element to the Anglicized dynasty founded by Malcolm III and his English queen, Margaret.
