This book contains the episode I read on the anniversary of 9/11, of the child rebuilding the tower, it has Alfred's great rallying call to the ordinary folk of England to choose a good death rather than slavery, and most famously it contains his cry at the turning point of the battle which was quoted by the times after the D Day landings: "The High tide!" King Alfred cried. The high tide and the turn!"
