Summary
When the BBC conducted the Greatest Briton poll in 2002, Alfred the Great was the only king to make it into the top 20. One can be sure that the story of the cakes left to burn in a Somerset hovel by a monarch on the run was much of what the voters knew about him. This book offers a portrait of a great ruler and the myths that grew around him.
