King Alfred's Vikings, A Story of the First English Fleet

One of many books by Charles Whistler, a writer of historic fiction that plays between 600 and 1100 AD, usually based on early English/Saxon chronicles, Norse or Danish Sagas and archeological discoveries. This book tells more of the battles between the English (united at last) and the Danes, and is the story of the first navy of England, built by Alfred with a little help from Norse friends.
