"description": "LibriVox recording of Sonnets on Anglo-Saxon History, by Ann Hawkshaw.
Read by eggs4ears.
The history of Britain up to the Norman Conquest in the form 100 prose
commentaries, each followed by a sonnet. The commentaries set the
historical scene, quoting from Bede, the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle and noted
historians of the times, Hawkshaws sonnets are both imaginative and
reflective, often casting new light on historical figures and events.
Born in Yorkshire, Ann Hawkshaw spent much of her creative life in
Manchester, where her husband John Hawkshaw was elected to Manchester
Literary and Philosophical Society and, as a friend of Elizabeth
Gaskell, she was drawn into the intellectual and literary circle of the
city. ( Phil Benson)
