Description
A gripping new history of the making of England as a nation, told through six bone chests, stored for over a thousand years in Winchester Cathedral. Those chests contained some of England’s most venerated, ancient remains: The bones of eight kings, including William Rufus and Cnut the Great – the only Scandinavian king to rule England and a North Sea Empire; three bishops; and a formidable queen, Emma of Normandy.
