Uhtred's feast : inside the world of the Last Kingdom

Books
When Bernard Cornwell's 'The Last Kingdom' was published in 2004 it was not just the new novel from one of the world's bestselling historical novelists, but the start of a series which would span 13 novels, reach millions of readers around the world and launch an epic TV series with global reach. But it was also, for Bernard, the beginning of nearly two decades immersed in the Anglo-Saxon world. The series was originally born out of his curiosity about how England was created out of a myriad of smaller kingdoms and settlers from many invasions - but beyond the political rivalry and the battlefields, amid the remarkable characters fighting their corners, Bernard discovered an increasing interest in the day-to-day realities of Anglo-Saxon life. This book contains a combination of Cornwell's writings about Anglo-Saxon life and over 100 recipes by Suzanne Pollack based on historical research.
