Description

Bede tells how the English Church took root: missions, kings, saints, rival rites, and the slow making of a Christian people. Spoken as history you can follow like a road, useful when you want the faith story of early England without the fog of later legend alone.

Author

Bede, also referred to as Saint Bede or the Venerable Bede, was an English monk at the monastery of Saint Peter at Monkwearmouth and its companion monastery, Saint Paul's, in modern Jarrow (see Monkwearmouth-Jarrow), Tyne and Wear, both of which were then in the Kingdom of Northumbria.
