The First Rector of Burgstead: A Tale of the Saxon Church is a historical fiction novel written by Edward Lewes Cutts in 1874. The story is set in the Saxon era and follows the life of a young priest named Cedric, who becomes the first rector of Burgstead, a small village in England. As Cedric settles into his new role, he faces challenges from within the church and from the local community. He must navigate the politics of the church hierarchy and deal with the prejudices of the villagers towards the new Christian faith. The novel provides a detailed portrayal of life in Saxon England, including the social structure, religious customs, and daily routines of the people. It also explores the conflict between the old pagan beliefs and the new Christian religion, as well as the struggles faced by early Christian leaders in spreading their faith. Overall, The First Rector of Burgstead is a compelling historical fiction novel that offers insight into the early days of Christianity in England and the challenges faced by those who sought to spread the faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
