Description
The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle - Illustrated and Annotated by Bob Carruthers is a vital collection of historical documents that shed light on the history of the British Isles during the dark ages. Without these accounts, much of our understanding of this period would be lost. The original 'Anglo-Saxon Chronicle' has been preserved in nine known versions or fragments, each with its own unique content and quality. The surviving manuscripts are copies, making it impossible to pinpoint the exact origin or composition date of the first version. This edition brings together readings from various versions, including the translation by Rev. James Ingram from 1828, along with footnotes from Ingram's work. The book is accompanied by paintings and engravings, providing a visual representation of this significant historical document. The Parker Manuscript is included in its entirety, making this edition a comprehensive resource for those interested in medieval history.
