King Alfred is a historical biography written by Elbert Hubbard, detailing the life and legacy of King Alfred the Great, who ruled the Anglo-Saxon kingdom of Wessex from 871 to 899 AD. The book explores Alfred's early life, his ascension to the throne, and his struggles against the invading Vikings, as well as his efforts to unify the disparate kingdoms of England under his rule. Hubbard also delves into Alfred's contributions to education, law, and religion, as well as his personal character and leadership style. Through his vivid prose and meticulous research, Hubbard brings to life one of the most important figures in English history, offering readers a fascinating glimpse into the world of medieval England and the man who helped shape it.THIS 34 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Little Journeys to the Homes of the Great: Teachers, by Elbert Hubbard.
