The Venerable Bede's Ecclesiastical History of England, also known as the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, is a historical text that chronicles the early history of England from the time of Julius Caesar's invasion in 55 BC to the end of the 9th century. The book was written by Bede, a monk who lived in the 7th and 8th centuries, and is considered one of the most important sources of information on early English history. The text covers a wide range of topics, including the arrival of Christianity in England, the reigns of various kings and queens, and the battles and wars that shaped the country. The book is divided into five books, each covering a different period of English history. The first book covers the period from Julius Caesar's invasion to the arrival of St. Augustine in 597 AD, while the second book covers the period from the arrival of St. Augustine to the death of King Edwin in 633 AD. The third book covers the period from the death of King Edwin to the reign of King Egbert in 802 AD, while the fourth book covers the period from the reign of King Egbert to the death of King Alfred in 899 AD. The fifth book covers the period from the death of King Alfred to the reign of King Stephen in 1154 AD. The book is an important historical document that provides valuable insights into the early history of England and the development of Christianity in the country.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
