The Year 1092 - Cumbria Invaded - Paperback

by Rod Flint (Author)

Hravn and Ealdgith's lives are again threatened by the Normans' lust for land when King William Rufus decides to seize Cumbria from the King of the Scots.

Betrayed by King Malcolm, and the target of Count Alan's vengeance, Hravn, Ealdgith and their growing family fight to defend their Eden Valley homeland, until they are forced into a series of battles to hold their last sanctuary around the shores of Ullswater.

It is a tale of the fortitude of young people, their courage and ingenuity; and also of female empowerment and leadership.

Written around historical characters and the geography of the Lake District, the story brings to life the dramatic military, political and social events of that time.
