The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle: A People in the Distance
Alex and Sam introduce The Anglo-Saxon Chronicle through the opening of the 1823 Ingram edition. They examine its claims, its sources and its gaps, and develop a vivid but careful sense of ancient Britain as a world reached through layered records rather than a single transparent story.
