Synopsis
The year is 781 A.D. King Charles of the Franks is crossing the Alps with his family and court on a journey to meet with Pope Hadrian. One frosty night he speaks to his young son Carl of his plans for the future: "When we come to Rome you will know that I am naming you my heir. One day you will rule over all my lands..." But the King already had an heir, Pepin the Hunchback, mockingly called Gobbo. Was he to be dispossessed? Yet Carl sees that Charlemagne is determined to do what he feels is best to serve God and Europe. The many-faceted story of the great Emperor Charlemagne and his son Carl will stir the minds and imaginations of young people. Through Carl's eyes we discover the grand dimensions of western Europe's foundation.

About the Author
BARBARA WILLARD (1909-1994) was born in Sus¬sex, England. She enjoyed over fifty years of writing for both children and adults. Her father was an actor, and she made her first stage appearance at the age of eleven. After completion of her formal schooling, she continued acting, and in addition, began writing film scripts and novels for adults. In the late 1950’s Miss Willard turned to writing for children, fulfilling a life-long desire. Her favorite genre was historical fiction, of which Augustine Came to Kent is an early ex¬ample. Since she had been an only child until the age of twelve, many of her nearly sixty works reflect a fascination with large families. Of her later work, her personal favorites were the acclaimed Mantlemass series, which follow an English country family from the 1400’s through 1600’s. Augustine Came to Kent was originally published by Doubleday in its Clarion Books series—a special set of titles written to present significant historical times and events from a Christian perspective. Miss Willard also wrote Son of Charlemagne and If All the Swords in England for this series.
