The Conquest of Britain by the Saxons is a historical book written by Daniel H. Haigh in 1861. The book provides a comprehensive account of the Anglo-Saxon invasion and conquest of Britain in the 5th and 6th centuries. Haigh harmonizes four primary sources - the Historia Britonum, the writings of Gildas, the Brut, and the Saxon Chronicle - to provide a detailed and accurate overview of the events that led to the Anglo-Saxon settlement in Britain. The Historia Britonum is a Latin text that outlines the history of the Britons from the earliest times to the 9th century. The writings of Gildas are a series of sermons and letters that provide a contemporary account of the Anglo-Saxon invasion. The Brut is a Middle English poem that tells the story of the Trojan War and the founding of Britain. The Saxon Chronicle is a collection of annals that record the history of the Anglo-Saxons from the 5th century to the 12th century. Haigh's book is a valuable resource for historians, students, and anyone interested in the history of Britain and the Anglo-Saxon period.With Reference To The Events Of The Fifth And Sixth Centuries.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
