Publisher's Synopsis
Despite being of British origin, the author of these pages will take care not to let that fact cause him to go briefly to the wrong in what he may say. Even before the birth of Christ, England served as a type of financial hub. For their tin, the Phoenicians and the Carthaginians traveled there. Sheriffs, priests, judges, police chiefs, plumbers, and justices of the peace were all Druids.Agricola was followed by Carausius, who joined the Saxon pirates and overthrew Diocletian despite being sent to kill them. Before he could ask for assistance, one of his cops killed him.One of the Wessex kings, Egbert, practically ruled Roman Britain. The Northmen (Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes) entered the land; these rather coarse people occasionally caused the Anglo-Saxons to blush.We simply need to point out that this work is in the author's best style and will be both entertaining and educational because it follows the trend of facts and the events, successions, dates, etc. are accurate. Naturally, Mr. Nye's imagination "embellishes" these facts, and the main historical figures are given fascinating roles to play.
