The Year 1102 - Jaws of Borrowdale

Om The Year 1102 - Jaws of Borrowdale

King Henry's accession to the English throne ten years after the Normans annexed Cumbria threatens to end the independence of those living within the sanctuary of the Lakeland fells. Acting in the King's name, avaricious barons attempt to dispossess Lady Ealdgith's family and force them to flee from their Ullswater lands to the safety of Borrowdale and a new home under the shadow of what is today called Castle Crag. Under Gytha's leadership the people of the Lake District are inspired to resist Norman control, culminating in a final battle from the crag that dominates the 'Jaws of Borrowdale'. The concluding tale in the Harrying of the North series is written around historical characters and the geography of the Lake District. The story brings to life the dramatic military, political and social events of that time. It is a tale of the fortitude of young people, their courage and ingenuity; and also of female empowerment and leadership.
