Six Old English Chronicles is a compilation of six historical texts from early medieval England. The first chronicle is Ethelwerd's Chronicle, which covers the period from the arrival of the Saxons in Britain to the reign of King Edward the Confessor. The second chronicle is Asser's Life of Alfred, which is a biography of King Alfred the Great and his reign. The third chronicle is Geoffrey of Monmouth's British History, which covers the legendary history of Britain from its founding by Brutus to the reign of King Arthur. The fourth chronicle is Gildas, which is a sermon on the sins of the British people and their punishment by the Anglo-Saxons. The fifth chronicle is Nennius, which is a history of the Britons from their origins to the arrival of the Saxons. The sixth chronicle is Richard of Cirencester, which is a history of Roman Britain from Julius Caesar's invasion to the end of the Roman occupation. This book provides a valuable insight into the history and culture of early medieval England, and is a must-read for anyone interested in the Anglo-Saxon period.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
