Harold, the Last of the Saxon Kings — Edward Bulwer-Lytton

The entire twelve 'book' fictionalised biography of Harold Godwinson, defeated by William the Conqueror at the Battle of Hastings, by Edward Bulwer Lytton, the enormously popular aristocratic author of the nineteenth century. This interesting novel is a strange mix of romanticism and research, featuring both witchcraft and scholarly footnotes. The text has been completely re-typeset in a modern font, and hand-edited to be clear and complete.
