Sword of Ganelon

0/5 ( ratings)

The Time is A.D.851. The place is the part of England now called the Isle of Thanet. On this part of the country, and this remote time, Richard Parker throws a thrilling light in his new historical book for older boys and girls, The Sword of Ganelon. He describes the people of that time, particularly Binna, a boy who is the youngest of three brothers, and a girl Goede; he describes their thoughts, their fears, their superstitions. He shows their lives surrounded by the terrors of the unknown - the wolves that come in the winter, the marauding and uncouth Danish invaders, the people from another part of the country - and surrounded too by the rough justice and homely comradeship of the village.
