Saint George For England is an adventure novel by G. A. Henty, first published in 1885. The story revolves around the life of a young boy named Cuthbert, who is sent to live with his uncle in England after his father's death. Cuthbert is fascinated by the legend of Saint George, the patron saint of England, and dreams of following in his footsteps. As he grows up, Cuthbert becomes involved in various adventures, including fighting against the invading Danes and participating in the Battle of Hastings. Throughout his adventures, Cuthbert remains true to his ideals of chivalry and honor, and becomes a hero in his own right. The novel is set in medieval England and provides a vivid portrayal of life during that time period. It also incorporates historical events and figures, such as William the Conqueror and Harold Godwinson. Overall, Saint George For England is a thrilling adventure story that celebrates the virtues of courage, honor, and patriotism. It is a classic work of children's literature that continues to be enjoyed by readers of all ages.Soon after the tournament we began to fight again with Scotland. For some years we had had peace with that country, and under the regency a marriage was made between David, King of Scotland, son of Robert the Bruce, and the Princess Joan, sister to our king, and a four years' truce was agreed to.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
