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>
Story Behind The Book
Crimson and Scarlet's initial manuscript was written from beginning to end in one week!
I know that you have heard of a book writing itself, well that is exactly what happened.
The writing process was an outlet for frustrations I was experiencing. I always knew I could write, I wrote well in high school, and had a number of essays returned to me with a note from my teachers, asking if I really wrote them-- I DID!
When I got to college I found that my ability to write was also apparent, but I had no idea what God would do with my writing... and as always life tends to enter in and move us along with many unanswered questions.
Through it all I believe that Crimson and Scarlet was "given" to me by the Spirit of God, I believe it carries with it the ability to change lives, I believe it will give the reader an opportunity to see themselves, or their attitudes in those of the characters. I know that you when you finish reading Crimson and Scarlet, you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.
