Publisher Description
The last historical novel penned by beloved British author Charles Kingsley, Hereward the Wake follows the story of an 11th-century resistance leader in the marshy region of eastern England who, according to legend, was the last holdout in the fight against the Norman invasion. Little known before he was featured as the star figure in Kingsley's novel, Hereward came to be regarded as an English folk hero.
