This print captures a pivotal moment in English history - King Alfred inciting the Anglo-Saxons to repel the invasion of the Danes in 876 A. D. The engraving, skillfully done by H. Bourne after G. F.

It transports us back to medieval times when kingdoms clashed for power and survival. This historic illustration is part of "Illustrations Of English And Scottish History".
