Description
The Great Heathen Army: Ivar the Boneless and the Viking Invasion of Britain by Benjamin James Baillie In 865 AD, a massive Viking army emerged from the North Sea, landing on the East Anglian coast with an objective to conquer all of Anglo-Saxon England and the British Isles. Led by the sons of Ragnar Lodbrok, this force was commanded by Ivar "the Boneless", a ruthless warlord who would leave a trail of destruction in his wake over the next 14 years. The Great Heathen Army was one of the largest invasion forces to reach Britain since Roman Legions arrived in 43 AD. Its impact was profound, shaping the course of English history and ultimately contributing to the creation of the nation state of England. This book tells the story of Ivar's rise to power and his role in this pivotal event. With a focus on historical accuracy and insight into one of the most significant periods in British history, The Great Heathen Army is a compelling account of the Viking invasion and its lasting legacy.
