About
I am 38, married to Sadie and have 3 children, Sammy, Emily and Heidi. I co-wrote "Mentality" with Karl Morris, Europe's Leading Mind Coach. We self-published this book and a % of each book sale will go to the charity Special Olympics Great Britain, a charity for people with learning disabilities.
To date, the book has been extremely well received by the media and customers here in the UK. We have very high hopes for the book, not only for it to be able to raise funds for Special Olympics GB, but for it to make a real difference in your life.
Godwine Kingmaker: Part One of The Last Great Saxon Earls
Description
<p><span><span>Harold Godwineson, the Last Anglo-Saxon King, owed everything to his father. Who was this Godwine, first Earl of Wessex and known as the Kingmaker? Was he an unscrupulous schemer, using King and Witan to gain power? Or was he the greatest of all Saxon Earls, protector of the English against the hated Normans? The answer depends on who you ask. He was befriended by the Danes, raised up by Canute the Great, given an Earldom and a wife from the highest Danish ranks. He sired nine children, among them four Earls, a Queen and a future King. Along with his power came a struggle to keep his enemies at bay, and Godwine's best efforts were brought down by the misdeeds of his eldest son Swegn. Although he became father-in-law to a reluctant Edward the Confessor, his fortunes dwindled as the Normans gained prominence at court. Driven into exile, Godwine regathered his forces and came back even stronger, only to discover that his second son Harold was destined to surpass him in renown and glory.</span></span></p>
