Dorsetshire: Its Vestiges, Celtic, Roman, Saxon, And Danish is a historical book written by Charles Warne and published in 1865. The book provides a comprehensive account of the history of Dorsetshire, a county in South West England. It covers the period from the prehistoric times to the Danish invasions of the 9th century.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a particular period of history. The first chapter explores the vestiges of the Celtic era in Dorsetshire, including the hill forts, burial mounds, and other archaeological sites. The second chapter discusses the Roman occupation of the region, including the construction of roads, villas, and other structures.The third chapter delves into the Saxon period, covering the arrival of the Saxons in the 5th century, the establishment of the kingdom of Wessex, and the role of Dorsetshire in the history of the Anglo-Saxon period. The fourth and final chapter covers the Danish invasions of the 9th century, including the battles between the Danes and the Saxons and the eventual establishment of the Danelaw in the region.Throughout the book, Warne provides detailed descriptions of the various historical sites and artifacts in Dorsetshire, as well as the cultural and societal changes that occurred during each period. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Dorsetshire or the broader history of England during the pre-modern era.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
