Full Story of the Anglo-Saxon Invasion

Name: Full Story of the Anglo-Saxon Invasion
Author: Michael G. Kramer

The story starts with the historical facts of ancient Germanic tribes amalgamating and two of them becoming dominant. These were the Franks and the Saxons. In the case of the Saxons, they were originally the remnants of the army of Alexander the Great and they dispersed to many parts of the world after his death in Babylon. It is known that the Saxons arrived on the northern coasts of Germania, arriving there in Greek ships. The Saxons amalgamated with the Engel tribe from about midway of the Jutland peninsula. The Engels were fine warriors and sailors. They lived along a fiord with its entrance on the western side of the peninsula. The name of the fiord was Eckenforde. Soon after that, the Saxons again amalgamated, this time with the Kimbern tribe from the north of the peninsula.

Isabella - Warrior Queen

This story is about an amazing couple in the 14th century, who actually had a working 'open marriage', such that Queen Isabella even tolerated King Edward II's homosexual activities with his male 'favourites'. Things remained that way until the current favourite of the king, called Piers Gaveston, was killed. He was replaced by Hugh le Despencer the Younger and an intense homosexual affair developed between the king and his chamberlain. After a time, Hugh le Despencer the Younger moved against Isabella by reducing her income markedly as well as taking her lands and other riches from her. Things came to a head when he also took her children from her and she went to France, raised a mercenary army and invaded England. She deposed her husband and installed her son as King Edward III.

A Castle of Doomsday - 2nd Edition

A Castle of Doomsday is historical fiction closely based on fact and it is also the story of the castles inside the city walls of York. William the First built two castles within the walls of York. One was at Bailey Hill and the other was York Castle, which has since become known as "Clifford's Tower". The original castles were constructed of timber. They were burned down by the people around York and their Danish Viking allies. Richard the First was the son of King Henry II and gained fame by his courage, becoming known as Richard the Lionheart, who presided over the apparent massacre of Jews at the keep of York Castle in England. The Normans replaced it with a second timber castle keep, which was destroyed in a storm in 1228. After that, the stone structure was built, and that still stands today. It was built of stone and is called Clifford's Tower because King Edward II had Baron de Clifford hanged from the battlements of the Keep of York Castle for treason in 1322 A.D.
