The Dragon and the Raven by G.A. Henty is about the tale of Edmund and King Alfred who must go to war against invaders to save the future of England. Excerpt: "Living in the present days of peace and tranquillity it is difficult to picture the life of our ancestors in the days of King Alfred, when the whole country was for years overrun by hordes of pagan barbarians, who slaughtered, plundered, and destroyed at will. You may gain, perhaps, a fair conception of the state of things if you imagine that at the time of the great mutiny the English population of India approached that of the natives and that the mutiny was everywhere triumphant."
