Description

In this story the author gives an account of the fierce struggle between Saxon and Dane for supremacy in England, and presents a vivid picture of the misery and ruin to which the country was reduced by the ravages of the sea wolves.

The hero, a young Saxon thane, takes part in all the battles fought by King Alfred.

He is driven from his home, takes to the sea, and resists the Danes on their own element, and being pursued by them up the Seine, is present at the long and desperate siege of Paris.George Alfred Henty (8 December 1832 - 16 November 1902), was a prolific English novelist, special correspondent and Imperialist.

He is best known for his historical adventure stories that were popular in the late 19th century.

His works include Out on the Pampas (1871), The Young Buglers (1880), With Clive in India (1884) and Wulf the Saxon (1895).
