The Conversion of England is a historical drama written by Henry Cresswell and published in 1885. The book is divided into ten tableaux, or scenes, that depict the conversion of England from paganism to Christianity during the 7th century. The story follows the life of Saint Augustine, a monk who was sent by Pope Gregory the Great to convert the Anglo-Saxons. The drama portrays the challenges and obstacles that Augustine faced during his mission, including opposition from the pagan king of Kent and resistance from the local population. The book also highlights the role of women in the conversion process, particularly the queen of Kent, who played a pivotal role in helping Augustine establish Christianity in the region. The Conversion of England is a vivid portrayal of a significant moment in English history and offers insights into the religious and cultural changes that shaped the country.Also Includes The Queen Of The Hid Isle, An Allegory Of Life And Art.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
